I can tell you this about a Ram 2500 SRW: I had a brand new 2013 2500 Cummins. When I bought my new 2013 Montana 3400RL, the pin weight of the EMPTY trailer came within 150 lbs of maxing out my rated cargo capacity. That was BEFORE adding any other cargo to the trailer or truck, fuel, or even my wife to my truck. I now have a 3500.
It isn't just about your towing capacity. Look carefully at your cargo capacity.
If you don't need or want 4-wheel drive, don't get it. It is more money and more weight.
I absolutely LOVE my Andersen Ultimate Hitch, and it saves me a BUNCH of cargo weight in my truck. It weighs 75 lbs. and I'd rather be able to carry the difference in weight as additional stuff I want, not as additional hitch weight.
Besides, because it takes me 5 minutes to put in and out, all by myself, I can have my truck bed clean and empty for hauling things.
