The CIPA Magna Custom Extendable Towing Mirror # CM73711 that you referenced is confirmed to fit your 2013 Ram 1500 but it does not have any temperature sensors built into it. So while this mirror will fit your truck you would lose that function if the sensor was in the mirror.

Typically ambient temperature sensors are located on the roof of the vehicle, and when I searched on the internet for your vehicle it would appear the sensor is in the fender and not the mirror.
