The standard hitch receiver for a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 will be 2 inches in diameter. This size is what Dodge has always used for the 1500 series but they do start getting larger at the 2500 and 3500 series trucks. The towing capacity for this year will range froM3100 to 4950 pounds. It is considerably less than what Dodge offers on today's models so You're not going to be able to haul any large work loads with this truck. If You're using it for personal use You should have no problem takeng on a medium size travel trailer.
