Sold my 17 Q7 to get a pickup to tow a soon to be purchased 27’ Ranger Tug+trailer 8,100 lbs dry.
So I’ve been looking at the Rams to tow the boat and use as a second vehicle. Coming off the Q7, the RAM would come the closest to satisfying my wife and my need for luxury and a smooth ride. However I’m getting a little nervous reading the discussions on payload, the Rams being 2300 pound payload capacity.
The Ford F-150 has almost 1000 pounds more capacity and the neat dial to control backing up a trailer. Of course it’s not as luxurious or smooth and that would be a hard pill to swallow.
