Post Towing Capacity

2012 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 6.7 Diesel 3.73 rear axle ratio
The following numbers are listed for trailer weights when I look up my vin # . How do you decipher these numbers?
Trailer weight :14550, 12550, 9550, 12450, 11450, 13500, 10500 lbs 9550.0 min 14550.0 max
I need to know my trailer towing capacity as I am considering buying a 5th wheel to tow.

Also depends on cab/bed configuration, auto or manual trans, and current phase of the moon...... Have a look here. Open the PDF for your year, should be enlightening. I'm seeing weights anywhere from 10K, to 14.5K......
