The auto transports are rated at 6k, 7k, or 7500 lbs depending on the model. The higher capacity ones also have a little extra width for larger vehicles.

The website relies on javascript and it can get a little wonky. It's much better these days but you can still get the wrong info on the screen because something didn't refresh properly. A Pulsar would fit in the bed of your truck with the right ramps

I have tried this, but no matter what I input it says that trailer is not available for you.
I have tried Ram 3500 dually with a honda civic and it says no dice. Maybe the website is broken.

Be sure to click on the "Will this work?" button after entering all your info. Here's what I get when I enter the OP's car with my truck:
