Ok so I have a 2003 dodge ram 2500 4x4 quad cab 5.7 hemi. This is my daily driver/work truck, I own a lawncare business so I tug around a trailer all day around town that probably weighs about 4-5k lbs. Handles it no problem of course, well anyways I'm from Sw oklahoma and I do lots of boating so this is my tow vehicle, now you may think I'm crazy but once a year I tow my boat all the way down to Miami Florida for some fun, about 1500 miles and a 25 hour drive. I have gotten a much much larger boat now, it's about 30 feet and sits on a triple axle aluminum trailer, all fueled up and loaded down it weighs somewhere in the 10-11k range. I personally think the truck handles it great, i measured the tongue weight and it's about 850 lbs which barely even makes the back end of the truck sag, if you've ridden in one you know how rough and stiff they are. it cruises 60 mph at about 2500 rpm getting 8mpg, I have made a couple long hauls with it about 100 miles each way with some steep grades and it had plenty of power to stay at speed and even accelerate if I wanted to, on some of those 110 degree days the temp gauge might read a little bit warm but nothing drastic. So my question is if this was your truck assuming you had fresh fluids(I run synthetic oil) would you attempt to haul this heavy of a load 1500 miles during the heat of the summer? Is the hemi as bullet proof as they make it out to be? Could it run at 2500+ rpms for 30+hours? Would I need to take breaks and let it cool down or can it handle it? I have never had any trouble with this truck it's got 120k miles and I maintained it really good, I never hesitate to hop in and haul it 100 miles to a lake but I'm just curious about 1500 miles.
