Will your 3/4 ton Ram squat when loaded? Sure it will! All trucks are going to squat some when loaded. Will the headlights be hunting for hoot owls up in the trees when loaded? Not in the least. We pulled our 331RL stickered with an unloaded weight of 12,160 and a GVWR of 14,260 with a 21 2500 CC CTD. Put Firestone air bags over the back axle thinking we would have weight issues. Though they helped out on some of whoopy-doo roads, I wouldn't have installed them had I known how little the truck squats without the air bags aired up. You won't have stability of a dually, but unless you are in high cross winds, you shouldn't have an issue. If you are in high cross winds, well probably a good time to pull over and wait it out no matter what kind of truck one has. Having owned two 2500s with the 6.4 hemi, my biggest concern would be the RPMs the engine will be turning. That's just me though. Take it easy and don't push your engine to it's limits. You'll have to decide what is best for you and your comfort zone. Good luck and be safe.
