towing with family
Hi My question is probably one everyone has heard or asked in some form or another I have a 2007 Cherokee 27q 6600# trailer, I have a 2014 Ram 1500 w/the hemi, with equal-I-zer w/d hitch and airlift...

This guy was pulling a 35' TT with his Armada until he traded for a F-350 diesel.
BUT his trailer was a lot longer and heavier (8500# dry), and he says the Armada did a respectable job towing it, but he traded because he was down to his last ounce of ratings. So with your size/weight TT you might be OK with the Armada.
Of course that means installing a brake controller in the Armada, getting proper mirrors, etc....
If this is the first time taking DD and the kids, maybe worth going somewhere close to home where they can follow easily in the Armada and see how the family camping thing works out with the TT before investing in tow gear for the Armada.
