If you just got your hands on a fully-equipped 2019 Ram 3500, you’re probably very excited about all of its performance potential. However, you might not know just how powerful the new Ram 3500 is. Here’s a quick guide to all the amazing towing capabilities of the 2019 Ram 3500.

Any Fifth Wheel Camper You Want
One of the reasons you’ll want a powerful truck is to be able to tow camping and road trip equipment such as a camper. Currently, one of the heaviest on the market is the Jayco North Point Fifth Wheel camper. It weighs in at right around 14,000 pounds before filling up the water tanks or packing your stuff.
So just what does seven tons of camper get you? The length of the camper is around 43 feet and can sleep four-to-nine travelers. It’s also loaded plenty of comfortable arrangements so everyone onboard will have the room to spread out a bit.

A 46-Foot Yacht
Of course, you don’t need to tie your grand adventures down to the land. The 2019 Ram 3500 can also tow a wide range of seafaring vessels. You could, for example, tow the Bavaria Cruiser 46, which clocks in at around 27,000 pounds. This leaves you with 8,100 pounds for your trailer and any cargo you pack onto the yacht. With an assembled height of 46 feet, you’ll want to make sure your route to the sea doesn’t take you under any bridges though.

Cruise Ship Anchor
Now that we’ve handled the more common types of towing that you’ll be doing, let’s cover some of the more interesting things you can tow. If you’re looking to tow something interesting, and not very practical, you can buy yourself a cruise ship anchor and tow that around town. The anchor for the Queen Elizabeth II clocked in at around 12.5 tons, or 25,000 pounds.

Two T-Rexes
Assuming you had a time machine, the Ram 3500 is capable of towing two fully-grown Tyrannosaurus Rexes with a few tons to spare. As these massive dinosaurs weighed 7.1 tons, towing just one would put many 1500 truck models through their paces.
-
15 Million Jelly Beans
Sometimes bigger isn’t always better. On some occasions, you’ll find yourself needing to tow a whole bunch of little things instead of one or two big-ticket items. But just how many little things can a Ram 3500 tow? Well, in the case of jelly beans, the number is around 15 million.
-
Up To Nine Cars
Getting back to more practical towing capabilities of the 2019 Ram 3500, we see that the truck can tow up to nine cars. This, of course, depends on how heavy the cars are and how heavy the trailer needs to be. When towing lighter sedans, which weigh between 1.5 and 1.8 tons, the number comes out somewhere around nine.
What you decide to tow with your 2019 Ram 3500 is your business. Whether you’re towing a camper or helping the Easter Bunny out with a jelly bean delivery, you can count on the Ram 3500 to get the job done. Come by 495 Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram to feel the power for yourself.
