I have a 2020 Ram 3500 Crew Dually 4wd with 1000 engine and 6 speed Aisen.
No Air bags. 35,000 Towing package (4:10 Gears).

Tow Amazing but Murder on Diesel.
10 to 11 MPG @ 70 MPH on flat land with NO trailer or load in bed.
My 2018 Ram 2500 4wd with Std Diesel and reg. automatic
gets 18+ @ 70MPH (3:42Gears) on same trip!!

I would not buy 1000 engine and big tow package UNLESS you are
usually towing well over 20,000 regularly!! It is way overkill for a 24 to 30 FT.
Enclosed trailer unless you guys own your own Oil Well out there.
