Default 2002 Ram 1500 tow capacity?

Hey all,

Just bought my first Ram to do some local RV towing. Can someone confirm the tow capacity? It's a 4.7L with a 3.55 rear axle ratio. I think I read somewhere it's 6,750lbs.

Thanks!

Mike

Should be in the manual. Good rule of thumb to keep in mind, shouldn't tow more than 80% of your max. So if it's 6750, the max you should tow is 5400.
