The reality is that many people with a Ram are towing toys (boats, ATVs, etc) or, as you say, a travel trailer, not a work trailer. Which brings us to the question of need vs want.

Plus, if work vehicles became lighter, work trailers would be forced to as well.

Try shopping for utility trailers. Anything affordable is very heavy steel & lumber. You can get light(er) trailers in aluminum but the price is much higher. I've never actually seen a contractor with one of those, too expensive.

And of course there is all the materials & equipment they're towing on it for the job. How do you suggest any of that become lighter?
