My RAM 1/2 ton (Hemi) struggled with our Wildwood 28DBUD on hills; it was under 7,000lbs loaded. It would max out RPM's and slow to 50mph on big hills. The truck *could* pull and stop it but moving to a diesel was EYE-OPENING. They are made to tow and the difference is noticeable. If you're towing short distances a couple times a year, it may not be worth it to you to upgrade. We wanted to travel on multi-state adventures and just didn't feel the RAM was adequate (or would last) with that size trailer.
