I further the suggestion of looking at a new Ram. I have a 2019 tradesman 6.4, 8 speed and 4:10 gears...It pulls like a beast. I can pull my 9k toy hauler around like its not even back there. Also, you can get these trucks full of options. Mine has nice stitched cloth seats, 8.4" touchscreen with blue tooth, upgraded instrument panel, backup camera, push button 4 wheel drive, tow package, running boards, and bed liner and was right at 38k out the door.

Mine is an older truck, 2017 with the six speed. It is surprising how much the 4:10 axle improves the overall vehicle. I can find a sweet spot towing any time. Pulling at 65mph 2600rpm is peaceful. 3500rpm on tuff hills.
