Of all of our trailer camping friends the only ones that have wrecked are the ones that were towing with a jeep grand cherokee .
neil bought the fancy V8 powered GC and also a "lite " trailer that was a 26 footer by name .
it was actually longer than that .
it turns out that in Oregon we have lots of curvy 2 lane highways .
it turns out that a 26 foot plus lever is just too much for a short wheelbase grand cherokee if you go into an unsuspected curve .
you are fine if you already know the road and have braked beforehand .
but they wrecked being adventureous and trying a new destination .
neither neil or judy were seriously injured .
they just went off the highway and rolled.
their insurance company totalled both rigs which were about 3 years old .
they now have a new diesel pickup and a slightly shorter trailer .
just like all of the rest of our camping friends .
a GC is fine but I would not consider more than a 22 footer .
