2. Ram 3500
For years Ram held the towing title. Last year however, it slipped to No. 2. Until FCA does some innovation with the available Ram engines it’s likely to slip another step next year.
The Ram 3500 is still an impressive, hardworking truck that comes with as many options as you can afford. It also has a diesel as its premiere engine. It’s a 6.7-liter turbodiesel inline-six that makes 350, 370, or 385 horsepower, depending on which transmission you choose. Top towing for the Ram 3500 is 31,210 pounds.
1. Ford F-450 Super Duty
At 32,500 pounds with gooseneck towing, the Ford F-450 Super Duty is the best truck for towing, at least in terms of capacity.
The F-450 is about 499 times more truck than most people will ever need. It’s big, 22 feet long and 91 inches wide. It’s got six wheels. It has a luxury class cabin. It’s expensive. Most importantly, it can pull 65,000 cans of your favorite beer to your beach party. Does anybody know what the towing capacity is for the Hennessey Velociraptor 6×6?
So, there you have it. A rundown to the best truck for towing available. If you plan on towing more than 35,000 pounds, we highly recommend you hire a pro.
