When a RAM 2500 Is the Right Truck

The RAM 2500 is for buyers who have moved beyond typical half-ton demands. Its heavier-duty chassis, suspension, cooling and powertrains suit larger campers, equipment trailers, jobsite loads and frequent towing.

The right truck depends on loaded trailer weight, tongue or pin weight, passengers, box cargo and the payload label on the exact vehicle. Use our RAM towing guide, or ask our team to review your numbers.

We serve truck owners throughout Grey, Bruce, Perth and Wellington counties.

6.4L HEMI or 6.7L Cummins?

Diesel is not automatically better. Match the engine to towing frequency, trailer weight, payload, annual kilometres and trip length.

Maximum towing17,740 lb20,000 lb
Maximum payload4,580 lb3,600 lb
Best fitMixed driving, payload, shorter trips and moderate towingFrequent heavy towing and long loaded trips
Hanover recommendation: Choose HEMI when value, payload and mixed use matter most. Choose Cummins for frequent heavy towing and diesel torque. The heavier diesel reduces payload, so always check the exact door-jamb label.

All ratings depend on cab, box, engine, drivetrain, axle and equipment.

Payload: The Number Buyers Often Miss

Trailer tongue or fifth-wheel pin weight uses payload and must share it with passengers, hitch hardware, tools and box cargo.

  • Use fully loaded trailer weight.
  • Estimate real tongue or pin weight.
  • Add passengers, accessories and cargo.
  • Check the exact payload label.
  • Confirm axle, tire, hitch and combined ratings.
