When customers visit us at Campbell McLennan Chrysler in Killam, one of the most frequent questions we hear about the Ram 2500 is: “How much can it actually tow?” And that’s a fair question—because when you’re hauling equipment across rural Alberta or pulling a camper out toward Hardisty or Camrose, you need numbers you can count on.
The 2024 Ram 2500 offers two powerful engine choices. The standard 6.4L HEMI® V8 delivers up to 17,730 pounds of towing capacity, thanks to 410 horsepower and 429 lb-ft of torque. For those needing more torque and efficiency, the available 6.7L Cummins® Turbo Diesel I6 cranks out 850 lb-ft of torque with a maximum towing capacity of up to 19,990 pounds when properly equipped.
But towing isn’t just about raw numbers—it’s about control. That’s where features like the integrated trailer brake controller, trailer sway control, and Auto-Level Rear Air Suspension come in. Together, they help make heavy hauling more stable, smooth, and safe—especially on Alberta’s winding rural roads or during windy prairie drives.
Need help hooking up? The surround-view camera system and trailer reverse guidance make alignment easier, even solo. It’s just one more way Ram keeps things practical for the real-world tasks drivers in Killam face daily.
If you’re comparing heavy-duty trucks in Alberta, the Ram 2500 proves it can do the heavy lifting without breaking a sweat. Visit Campbell McLennan and see how this workhorse handles everything from farm loads to weekend toys—because towing isn’t a feature, it’s a way of life.
