Yea, I can tell when I pull my 30' travel trailer. Good thing it is a lite, but still 7000 lbs+/-...I know I will catch hell from people telling me I'm pulling too much. My 350 Chevy pulled it fine and this 390 does well too. A friend of mine pulls the same TT with a 5.4 Ford. BTW I have read alot of the 5.7 Hemi vs. 5.9 Magnum and am probably under powered. Iowa is reasonably flat.

Try again @ dodge.com. I got all 3 of mine in 24hrs. Make sure they didn't get sent to your junk mailbox.

Not trying to be a smartass, but the 5.9L is the 360. It will definitely pull. It was a tried and true engine, just not the most fuel efficient. My work pickup has the 5.9L and 3.55's. Its a lot different when jump into my hemi with 3.92's.

Where on dodge.com do you find a place to request a build sheet? Do you have an email address to send the request to? Do they just need the VIN?

Go to www.dodge.com. Click on owners at the top right. Go down to I need customer service and click on it. The click the send us an e-mail.
Tell them you are requesting a build sheet and give them the year and model of truck/car along with the VIN number. They usually reply within 24hrs.
