As a retired Chrysler dealer Service Manager, installing a chip is a bad idea because it will compromise your powertrain warranty. I have a 2011 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi that I use to tow my Cougar Fifth that weighs just under 10,000 pounds loaded, and before someone asks how can I tow it with a 1500 I verified what I could tow with Ram tech. I have had no issues towing anywhere including the Rockies with my truck. Again I would strongly recommend not adding a chip or any performance modifier, as this could (as one customer of mine found out) can be a very expensive modification in the long run.
