Towing Capacity for New Travel Trailer
I am currently looking to purchase a new Travel Trailer. My current trailer, a Keystone Bullet 246RBS, has a dry wt of 4800lbs. I tow it with a 2013 Ram 1500, which is rated between 8400lbs and 9700lbs depending on the chart you use. Seems as even the dealers have a hard time answering the actual towing capacity question. The truck has no problems towing the current trailer, but I'm looking at a new trailer which is 5 ft longer and has a dry weight of 6100lbs. Should I be concerned that the weight with gear and such is getting to close to the capacity of the truck? Obviously I would prefer not to upgrade to a 2500.7.6KViews0likes27Comments
