I tow a jeep, a 2000 TJ Wrangler with 283,000 miles on it at last count.
I also drive it everywhere every day, and insist that I like it. Itsa jeep thing, you just wouldn't understand.
But with the addition of our third dog, we have outgrown it, and a month ago I put a blue ox baseplate on the wife's 2010 Jeep Liberty. We'll see how it tows, but it is a very nice little truck/suv/jeep thing. I never liked the first design liberty's, the rounded ones with the spare tire on the tailgate. But this body style looks good. Kinda like a Jeep Commander that spent too much time in the dryer?
You might take a look and a test drive of a lightly used last design Liberty. Maybe your DW will like it. A 2013 model would still have a warrantee and be buyable for maybe $19k (for a limited like we have)
