And my tow vehicle is a 2016 Ram 1500 Longhorn 4x4 with a 5.7 Hemi. I was thinking about your C13704 hitch

First you'll need to measure the frame width of your 2020 Forest River Salem FSX 280RT toy hauler. Once you know that you can choose the correct size receiver hitch. The Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # C13704 is compatible with frame widths of 22" to 66" and has a GTW of 5000lbs and TW of 500lbs.
if you have a frame width larger than 66" you can use the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # 13703 which is compatible with frame widths of 22" to 72" but only a GTW of 3500lbs and TW of 350lbs.
Since you'll be triple-towing you'll need to review the laws in every area you'll be travelling through as triple towing is not legal in every state/county and some have special restrictions.
