I towed a 2006 Jeep Rubicon Unlimited with a 1995 Tioga 29 foot Class C, with the Ford 460 V8 in it, no problem. That includes several trips over the Continental Divide.
Then, I traded the Tioga for a Fleetwood 32V Class A with the Ford V10 in it (see sig.). I towed the Jeep with it, again, over the Continental Divide several times, no problem.
Now, I am towing the Dodge in my sig. over the same passes. It works.
I also drove the Jeep on several long trips (1500+ miles). I found it to be quite comfortable at freeway speeds, especially with the hardtop on it.
In some ways, I miss the Jeep, but I sure like the truck! Just like yesterday, when we shoved a 3 foot by 6 foot piece of 3/8 steel plate in the bed, or hauling 6 eight foot sections of antenna tower. A pickup can be VERY handy!
