What can a Ram 1500 (3.0 Hurricane, max tow) ('25-26) actually tow?

rated 11,610 lbpayload 1,870 lbpickup bed

The rating is the easy half of the answer. A trailer never weighs its brochure dry weight (water is 8.34 lb a gallon, propane and batteries ride along, and so does your gear), and hundreds of models changed their published weights mid-run, so the model year decides as much as the model. Judged that way, with a 10% margin and 2 people aboard: 3522 of 5150 campers fit a Ram 1500 (3.0 Hurricane, max tow), and 10 more fit if you buy the right years.

The number that quietly binds is payload, 1,870 lb (Ram 1500 4x2 Quad Cab Tradesman 6'4" box SRW, 3.0L Hurricane SO, 3.92 axle, 6,900-lb GVWR, GCWR 17,000 - the 2025 row that carries the top rating): tongue weight lands on the rear axle with your passengers and the hitch, so a vehicle often runs out of payload well before it runs out of rating.

FIT IF YOU BUY THE RIGHT YEARS

These changed their published weights mid-run: some model years clear a Ram 1500 (3.0 Hurricane, max tow), others don't. A listing site treats them as one trailer. They aren't.

That depends on what you care about: bunks for the kids, build quality, budget, weight you'd rather not tow. Set your priorities as sliders and watch all of these re-rank around them, live, with your vehicle already filled in. Nothing gets hidden.
