Tow Capacity

[Stacy Burris]

I am researching for a tow vehicle. I like this RAM 3500 Tradesman, but I'm getting different tow numbers depending on how/where I do my VIN lookup online. Can you tell me if this truck can tow a 5th wheel with GVWR of 22,500 lbs? What actually is this truck's tow capacity? Thank you for your help.

The best source of truth would be the orange sticker in the door jamb. The maximum trailering in your 1st image sounds about right for an SRW. The listed amount on the second image sounds about right for a DRW with the HO Cummins (Aisin) and 4.10 axle.

The towing guide will give you a ballpark area to expect based on the trucks drive line options.

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! I was hitting dead ends with other forums.
