I have a 2014 ram 1500 crew cab and i'm going to buy a 24' cargo trailor. Will this be hard on the truck or will it be to big for it? Any awnsers?

A 24ft trailer isn't all that big. But you can't overload it. You're just gonna have to watch your cargo.

What engine is your 2014, what rear end, and what is it rated for? (Viewing in tapatalk so I can't see your listing)

How much does this trailer weigh and how much weight do you plan on loading it with?

I towed it again last night, no wind or rain this time.

The Ram is sooooo powerful. That's a real joke compared to my 11 gmc sierra 4.8 with the 3.08 diff.

I accelerated after a red light, and I checked if the trailer still there,I feel like the trailer wasnt there. In fact the acceleration was better than my wife kia rio haha


I only have 100 km to do mostly urban highway so I didn't put my anti-sway bar, but I cross kilometer long bridge with some heavy winds, and even without it, the trailer almost didn't move.

Also when the truck is going downhill , the truck slow down itself.

This truck is awesome:happy160:
