I towed an awd stealth from Detroit to the Pitt area with 2wd 318 96 ram 1500... actually got 14mpg on that trip too. Also 2 more engines in the bed and a pile of parts. Probably in the 6k pound range with trailer. I wouldn't hesitate to tow with one if it's basically flat ground. Too hilly where I live not to have more power and reason I have a cummins now.
