2025 Ram 3500 Towing Capacity

180 of 256 live listings carry the AHU 5th Wheel / Gooseneck Towing Prep Group, read from the window sticker or OEM code. Updated hourly.

Our catalog lists every 2025 Ram 3500 trim at 18,000 lb conventional, from the Tradesman with the high-output Cummins to the Limited/Longhorn with the 6.4L HEMI. The heavy ratings come through two option codes, both rated 34,490 lb gooseneck / 5th-wheel: AHU, the 5th Wheel / Gooseneck Towing Prep Group, and AJL, the Max Tow Package. Both are counted in the listings above only when the window sticker or OEM codes show them, so a truck a dealer calls max-tow but whose sticker doesn't list AJL isn't counted.

Live listings with tow equipment

Counted only when the package shows on the truck's window sticker or in its OEM option codes, not in dealer text.

One catalog configuration per trim. Each trim comes in several engine, axle, cab and bed combinations with different ratings; a truck's own window sticker has its exact ones. A dash means the figure isn’t in our catalog or isn’t confirmed against an OEM source.

Factory tow packages

Verified packages with an OEM order code and what they change for towing. A rating is shown only where every verified source for that code agrees.
