RE: 2013 Grand Cherokee V8
ok, so let me know if this makes sense
http://www.lancecamper.com/lance-2185-travel-trailer-main.php
3825 Gross dry weight
450 Hitch Dry weight
25.8 overall length
Allowing for a full take of water, half black tank and a propane tank full I back down to 700 pounds of gear if I was to limit the overall weight to 5150 pounds. If I could 5400 pound than I could have 1000 pounds of gear
Is this doable?

RE: 2013 Grand Cherokee V8
I think I might just turn around and buy a small class A and tow the dam thing

RE: 2013 Grand Cherokee V8
Here is the info I could get
The GAWR is 3700
The combined weight of occupants and cargo is 1050
The jeep came with the 5.7V8 with Heavy Duty Engine cooling, Trailer Group IV and a 220AMP alternator plus trailer sway damping (?)
The max tow capacity is 7400 lbs
Max Tongue Weight is 740
weight between my wife and I are 280lbs (I am 180 of that) the dogs each are about 45lbs (Brittany Spaniels), so say another 135lbs
I would say normal camping gear and cloths for two people, some fly fishing equipment

RE: 2013 Grand Cherokee V8
Thanks, , wife wanted a slide so it wouldn't seem claustrophobic. I may need to look at some type of Hybrid
I am not sure what rear GAWR is?

2013 Grand Cherokee V8
What would be a good choice for a self contained TT with a slide for added room that I can tow with a 2013 GC Overland 4x4 Hemi V8
Two adults, 3 brittany spaniels
Thanks
