OK if in the mountains a lot or do not care about $4k-$8k extra the diesel is you best choice. OTOH the Grand Cherokee with the Pentastar is a lot less expensive, weighs less, and has a 6400 lb rating with the factory towing package.
My '12 GC with the 5speed tows my 2720SL at 65-70 effortlessly. Tractive effort is very similar just the gas engine winds higher. I get 17-18 when towing and the new ones are better.
The airflow over the GC to the TM is very good. I suspect that unless a camper shell is added to the Ram it might have a bit more drag.
