Whats biggest thing you've towed with your 1500?

Looking into a 6x12 cargo trailer...is it worth it to get a V-nose? Anyone have experience?

I haven’t had any but I would think that v nose would be a little easier on fuel mileage.

Yeah I would think so. I had a 6x12 flat front that I used to tow with my 4.7...but that was a different story now that I have a 5.7. Trying to get one soon for my next PCS.

Yes, at least in the case of my 20' enclosed car hauler. Gives me a little room in the front when I load the 59 Lincoln, which is 18'11"

2016 1500, 5.7 with 392 gears 4X4 Outdoorsman, crew cab. 20' v nose enclosed trailer loaded with a 59 Lincoln Premiere, 4 door. 18'11 long and 5500 pounds. Also hauled my 72 GTO but it was nowhere near as heavy. Weight distribution hitch. 20 miles of interstate outside of Cleveland. Hauled great, no problems. I do plan on buying the Timber Grove air bags to beef up the rear suspension. I've also hauled my stock trailer. I traded a Yukon XL Denali in for this as I needed more towing capacity. This truck does the trick.

Just for the heck of it, I was wondering what the biggest/heaviest things you've towed with your Ram 1500?

I'll start with trailering my Jeep behind the truck. Anywhere more then 100~ miles, I'll trailer the Jeep incase I break something.

P.S. U-haul car haulers don't distribute the weight very well on shorter wheel base vehicles.

I use my truck towing everyday almost. I think the heaviest thing I towed so far was about 11k I have an EcoDiesel. That was in town for the most part. I usually tow around 6500-8000 consistently.

It’s a toss up here but I’d probably say my 25 river rat!

But the donzi towed amazing! Didn’t even know it was there.

The excavator was probably the heaviest.

My 20 ft Glastron/Carlson ski/speed boat.Approx 3000 with the 200 XP V6 outboard.It weighs a ton by itself.

Around here the ramps are so steep you would need a 4 x 4 low range to pull those out of the water.

It's the only thing I've really pulled. Scrapped my old car. It's a heavy tilt deck trailer too

Yes it was a '02. I had plans to rebuild it but didn't work out the way that I had hoped
