I had no issue towing our 26ft trailer for over 12 000km last summer with our 2015 grand Cherokee, and it was only the V6. The trailer was 4600lbs dry weight. It was just two of us, so you'll have more weight in the car but the V8 can handle that. The payload for the grand Cherokee V8 is frustratingly low and I don't really understand why it's so low when the car weighs only about 5300lbs but has a GVWR of 6800. The axles are also rated to handle more than the payload limit.
We didn't go fast and some big mountain climbs slowed us down quite a bit, but I was never worried. It towed great during flash floods in Oklahoma and though +42C weather in New Mexico! I wouldn't want to tow anything longer than 26ft. The Grand Cherokee is a beautiful car!
