    Do you guys think a 3500 Dodge is to small to pull a 40ft trailer plus the load? Some say so, some say it's fine. Input appreciated. .

    Pulled a 48 ft double decker car trailer with a 2003 ram 3500 and then a 2008 ram 3500 for 10 years NY to Florida and back 34,000 gvw no issues.
    I am the driver and the mechanic so that might make a differance
