I have a 2021 1500 v-8 that I currently tow a camper with. It weighs in about 5600 lbs dry. I'm relatively new to camping\towing and can't help but wonder if the 2500 might have been a better choice. My current truck pulls it fine but you can definitely tell it is back there. Going up moderate hills it sees that the 1500 really revs up. Normal mileage when towing is about 10 mpg. The engine in the 2500 doesn't seem to be tremendously bigger. Would I really tell a difference? I'm a little skeptical of the diesel offering, mostly because I know nothing about them and also, I'm leery of turbo chargers. Seems like something else to break.
Would appreciate any opinions.
