Looking to move from 3rd to 4th generation.


2010 - 2012 ish model

Will be retiring in a couple yrs. so we will be downsizing to one vehicle.

We have a 26ft TT that we will be pulling occasionally but not far.

I'm looking at Ram 4x4 quad cab with the 5.7 hemi.


My question is 1500 or 2500?

 

Can you move this to general?

 

I tow a 26" TT with a 2010 RAM 4x4 CC 1500. I'm happy with my setup using a WD hitch. The "ride" is very smooth. My truck has no issues and it has towed the trailer from the Midwest to the deep south and back several times plus a few local camping trips. We drive it weekly around town because it is a good all-around vehicle.


1500's have coil springs in the rear and the 2500's had leaf springs.


I have owned numerous trucks and this is my favorite due to the smooth ride and overall quality.


1965 f100
1966 f100
1967 Chevy heavy 1/2
1969 Chevy 1/2 ton
2000 Chevy 2500

2007 GMC 2500 - current daily driver.

 

Ram 2500

 

Go big or go home.....2500.

 

If you do go a 1500 route, see if you can find a 2013 with the 8-speed (assuming you don't want to go newer). In my opinion, its a better transmission than the 5-speed and 6-speed in the 2010-2011 and 2012, respectively. Also, the upgraded interior in the 2013+ models is amazing.

Any way you go, you can't go wrong. These are great trucks.
