This is invaluable information for those of us with Ram TV's and TT's in the 30ft. range.
We have printed this thread and put it with our TT stuff for future reference.
Thanks for taking the time to present this information.
In a couple of weeks I will be installing the ProPride WDH and will put your info to good use.

UPDATE: we have towed this setup through the PA mountains several times now. Plenty of power, no sway, very hilly, no problems whatsoever! Did change brake setting back to light electric with gain at 4.0. Tow/haul has worked great on some long, up to 8% downhill grades, with little need to apply brakes. Have not traveled much on interstate, anxious to see how it all handles at 65mph. Most of our trips have been 55 to 60 on 2 lane mountain highways and it tows great.

Thanks for the detailed post USA. We have a 2017 RAM Bighorn 1500/Hemi and our 2600 RB should be here within 2 weeks. Hopefully we can get dialed in as well as you are.

Just wanted to throw in another "thank you" for this info post! I will be similarly loaded and while my TV is a GMC 1500, my numbers should be very similar and all your TT weights are within spec for my truck. Appreciate you doing so much legwork!

A follow up to my post above.
Our 2600 RB's actual tongue weight per the spec sheet was 660 lb.
When I weighed the truck and trailer when loaded only for 4 nights it had a tongue weigh just shy of 1000 lb.
So with a payload of only 1440 we were pretty well overloaded. We were also only a few pounds shy of the GCWR, even though the trailer grossed out at 6550. The truck pulled the load fine and braking was awesome, but we were very overloaded.
Since we plan to do some trips out west, we ditched the 1500 and are now using the 2500 you see in my signature.
And the 2500 is so much more stable, I'm glad we made the change.Jay Leonard

Truly refreshing to read this post as we are waiting our finished new F150 and an anticipated purchase of the GD 2600RB and the 3P this Fall. Our numbers on paper appear to be very near max but it all depends on the final yellow door tag and the final loading which we control.
