Dang....my 5.7, 3.92, 6 spd gets 10-11 towing a 6500# camper........drops to 9-10 in the mountains hills around here
My boat @ 3500# is ~13-14 mpg
Who else will be in the cab with you? Their weight counts too. What is your payload limit? What is the trailer gvwr and actual weight? Too many unknowns for me to give you any thoughts at this point. With the info you provided, yeah you should be ok, but you should know your weightsWhat do y'all think I'll get towing a 2500# travel trailer, 500# of "stuff" with 350lbs in the cab?
3.6L 4x4 with 3.21 final drive.
View attachment 127164 About 8 to 9 mpg . 2013 5.7 Hemi 6 spd 3.55 towing 32 foot long 11.4 ft tall Cherokee about 7500 lbs loaded .

Wow, you guys must be very thin! Lol! Hey that's good though!The 350lbs is the total weight of the three people in the cab. Trailer is 2500# dry with an axle limit of 3500#. We will have 400# of "stuff" in the trailer and 100# of stuff in the bed forward of the rear axle so that it doesn't affect tongue weight.

Well if your rig is 3500 gvwr and those are your weights then I tink you'll be fine. I'd still use wdh and at least friction sway control for more stability, but those weights should be no problem for your truck in my opinion anyway. Good luck and happy camping!
I'm not familiar with the V6 per se, but I'd plan on somewhere in the low teens towing. I was actually pretty impressed with my 2500/6.4.. on a trip last year, loaded heavy for a week long trip I got 12 mpg average. I thought that was pretty good!
My four horse trailer with tack room and my three horses and hay and saddles and four passengers is about 8400 pounds in my ram 2018 3.92 gears hemi crew and I average 10.2 to flagstaff az and back lots of hills about four hours one way. That’s also with Toyo 35X12.5 r20’s
