FAQ
What is the maximum towing capacity of the 2025 Ram 1500?
11,550 lbs — but only in one specific configuration: the 3.0L Hurricane I6 Twin-Turbo (Standard Output), 4x2, Quad, 3.92 axle ratio. Other configurations rate as low as 6,370 lbs. Source: 2025 Ram 1500 Payload & Towing Weight Capacities (official, SAE J2807; Tradesman max).
Can a 2025 Ram 1500 tow a 25-foot travel trailer?
A typical 25-ft travel trailer weighs 6,000–7,500 lbs loaded. Higher-rated 1500 configurations (up to 11,550 lbs) handle that with margin, but payload is usually the real constraint: ~750+ lbs of tongue weight plus passengers counts against payload, not the tow rating. Use the calculator above with your exact configuration and passenger count.
How do I find MY 1500's exact towing capacity?
Enter the VIN above — it resolves engine, drivetrain, and cab. If your configuration's rating still depends on axle ratio or tow package (the VIN doesn't encode those), check the door-jamb certification label, or pull your window sticker free on CarWhere — it lists both.
