I can speak to the 08 CRV and 2013 Jeep Sahara 4-dr as we have towed both vehicles and presently towing the Jeep. The CRV is a great towing vehicle (light and good milege).... we towed over 50,000 miles with no problems..... the only negative (if this is a negative where you are concerned) is that it's low to the ground and restricted us when we were sightseeing away from our base camp (within 200 miles) and on back roads which we love to travel.... we did a good bit of research and elected to go with the Jeep.... it's high off the ground, excellent sightseeing vehicle, 4-wheel drive (when we want it), pulls as well (maybe better) than the CRV, at 50,000 miles we put one size larger Michelins on it and it rides great, have no cons where it is concerned.
We bit the bullet and put a M&G Braking System on it (and we are super happy we did), when I put on the air brakes in the coach, it puts on the brakes in the Jeep (this is very reassuring).... when we get ready to go on the road, we hook up and we plug in the air hose, the DC connection, put the Jeep in neutral and away we go. We only looked at two braking systems (this was very important to us).... M&G and Air Force (both are excellent but not cheap).... we had the M&G system on the CRV also.... I almost forgot.... we have the Roadmaster Blackhawk 2 All Terrain Towing System hookup.... sorry to be so wordy but I am returning the favor to the people who gave us great insight when we first started out years, and years ago.... Good Luck.
