How to Tow a Tiny House with Your Ram Pickup

The most important factor to consider for tiny house owners wishing to haul their tiny home, is the gross weight of the tiny house and trailer. The average weight of a tiny house is about 10,000 pounds, but they do vary, ranging from as little as 3,000 pounds to as much as 15,000 pounds.

When considering what your tiny trailer weighs, the experts at Gill CDJR recommend choosing a truck with a tow rating that’s higher than the gross weight, rather than just hovering around the maximum weight limit.

Advanced towing technology can be super helpful on a big job like tiny house towing. Ram trucks offer a host of available options including a Class-Exclusive Link Coil Rear Suspension, a Class-Exclusive Auto-Level Rear Air Suspension system, and brand new Trailer Reverse Steering Control.
