SoundGuy, I am not really sure what my husband had added to our Jeep. It had something to do with towing our last small camper. I know we had the anti-sway bar and had weight distribution, but I am clearly not mechanical and can't give specifics. Anyway, regardless of what tow vehicle we end up with we will install all the recommended safety features.
So in your original post you said - "Right now we have a 2014 Grand Jeep Cherokee with the tow package and a V8 engine", in which case the only item that could have been added specifically for towing would have been a brake controller. Weight distribution and sway control have nothing to do with the tow vehicle per se but rather are stand alone items that connect the trailer to the TV. That's important as any future vehicle you might want to use for towing only needs to be similarly equipped and has nothing to do with using WD and sway control. Of course whatever WD system you have needs to be correctly rated for the size of trailer you intend to tow.
