I have a 2016 RAM 1500 v8 5.7 8hp70 transmission Crew cab with a max pay load of 1520/GVWR 6900. It has a max towing weight of 8040lbs and GCWR is 13,800. The trailer I am interested in has a dry weight of 5385, dry hitch weight of 619 and GVWR is ...
I estimated with gear, I would be adding at least 600 lbs to the trailer, putting it at around 6000 lbs. Hitch weight at .10 or more runs 600+. We have a family of 4, combined weight as of now around 450 lbs. That alone puts us in the 1100+ range....
