I dont see this as an issue..

According to the article
3500 towing capacity, when the Ram and Silverado have almost double, and later one specify theirs as  at 4500?

Maybe I need to relearn mathematics, but I thought double 3500 = 7000

I'd take the Yank Tank over the Landcrab any day of the week.  ;) A straight 6 versus V8 for the same price and better torque and fuel economy is a no brainer. Don't need to do any upgrades at stupid Oh What A Feeling prices.  ;D

Something they never mention is that the Ram 1500 rear axle capacity is only 1770kg....

Not in the Ram 1500. V8 petrol only, I believe.

Need to move up to the Ram 2500 to get the straight 6. Starting at $158,950 + orc.
