Best TT for Jeep GC?
My Jeep GC has a towing capacity of 7500 pounds, hitch weight of around 730 pounds. We are RV newbies. We want as much upscale TT as the Jeep can handle. Any suggestions?

- Find a TT with a GVWR of 7000# give or take. No longer than a 26 ft for a TT. Use a good sway control hitch like the Hensley. PM me with questions if you have any....

Lance Travel Trailers
My towing capacity is as much as yours is (7,700 lbs) and I own a Lance 1685. Pulls great, just like a dream!
WoodGlue - 730 pounds TW will be your limit, or payload. 730 loaded TW means about 5500-6000 pounds loaded RV. Upscale? What do you mean by that? Airstream is the highest end for travel trailers.

By upscale I meant luxurious. Max 2 people.- Like what features would make an RV luxurious? You won't find granite coutners in any TT I have seen for example. Airstream is modernly upscale in interior design. My North Trail has solid surface counters, glazed maple wood cabinets, slam latch outside storage doors, and power jacks. I really like those features that some call luxurious, but I don't. Lance makes great RVs, but I would not call them luxurious.

Agreed, Lance isn't in the luxury class, but they're built to last w/Azdel, LitePly Wood, Glazed Hardwood Cabinets, Serta Full Queen Mattresses, etc.
I guess you could say that Lance is the IKEA of Travel Trailers!

Oh, I hope not! Ikea is cheap modern style, not luxurious or quality!
Airstream Flying Cloud, International Serentity, or Signature 23FB look like good fits for OP.APT wrote:

When is the last time you looked at an IKEA Kitchen? KuchenSystems is another example I'd use to compare Lance to.- We have a Jeep Grand Cherokee and a Jayco 25RKS Jay Flight. We love it and have no problems towing.
