If I recall, the bumper is a class III hitch, rated at up to 5000Lbs trailer
weight, 200Lbs tounge weight. (I know it's this on the Ram...) I've towed
5000Lbs + on the Ram bumper- it looks like a hitch underneath... I don't
know if the Dak is the same.
But it WILL say in your owner's manual what the bumper is rated for.
