Alright guys, so my parents are looking to buy a 20-25 ft pontoon and since I am the only one with a truck they would need to borrow my truck to haul it. My question is, would my 2012 ram with the 5.7 and 3.55's be good enough? I've only towed a car trailer loaded which was fine.

should be fine. pontoons are mainly aluminium and are fairly light. usually around 5000lbs dry weight

Just have them ask the weight with the trailer when they do the shopping and keep it under your max towing capacity.
