Bed, tongue weight, and wheelbase
The trailer rating is one limit. The bed has to fit the load, the tongue or pin has to fit in payload, and the wheelbase is the column the chart uses.
- An illustrative 10 percent of the 17,970 lb conventional maximum is 1,797 lb of tongue weight. This is not a measured load or recommended percentage; actual load may be higher.

Questions
- How much can a 2014 Ram 2500 tow?
- The highest conventional-hitch rating for the 2014 Ram 2500 is 17,970 lb, the top of 232 rows transcribed from Ram’s 2014 Ram 2500 Towing Chart (media.chrysler.com). That row is printed for the 6.7 DIESEL CUMMINS - ETK, Regular Cab, Long box bed, 2WD, 3.42 axle, REG CAB LONG BOX 4X2 ST/TRADESMAN, trans 6-SPEED AUTOMATIC - DG7 XBS. Most configurations are rated lower: 231 of the 232 transcribed conventional-hitch chart rows for 2014 are below 17,970 lb.
- Did 2500 towing change for 2014?
- Compare the cited 2014 figures on this page with the 2013 record. They are stored separately.
- Which configuration hits the maximum?
- The 17,970 lb conventional maximum is printed for the 6.7 DIESEL CUMMINS - ETK, Regular Cab, Long box bed, 2WD, 3.42 axle, REG CAB LONG BOX 4X2 ST/TRADESMAN, trans 6-SPEED AUTOMATIC - DG7 XBS.
- What tongue weight should I plan for a 2014 2500?
- At the cited 17,970 lb conventional maximum, an illustrative 10% assumption produces 1,797 lb of tongue weight. This is not a recommended percentage or a measurement; follow your trailer and vehicle instructions and measure the actual load. That load counts against payload and the rear axle rating.
