There's not much to be interested in. High gears aren't for towing, they are for fuel economy. Not to mention the Ram's coil over suspension in the back as opposed to leaf springs.

Now you just sound ridiculous. Anything on any manufactures engines might one day break. If you are worried about that, just ride a skate board, its less moving parts and cheaper to fix. Never mind that GM has been making engines with with active fuel management for a good while now. They probably have it down. I haven't heard of active fuel management failure as a glaring problem. Also, 5 year/100000 mile power train warranty would cover that.
