My father is looking at getting a 2017-2019 1500 pentastar. He plans to use it for his business mainly but occasionally (1 or 2 times) a year, he will be towing his boat. Its 25ft long, 8ft wide and weigh 6000lbs including the trailer. I'm wondering if I should talk him into getting the 5.7 but he seldom tows and would really benefit on the mpg and reliability/simplicity the v6 offers. He would be getting a base model quad cab 4x4.
I have a 2017 5.7 which tows my camper really well. He isn't the most keenest person when it comes to vehicle maintenance (goes to jiffy lube) so i'm afraid the cam/lifters will be a problem later on.
