JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE
We sold the class A and are now looking to downsize to a small light weight travel trailer. Because of length limitations of my garage and not wanting to keep a vehicle outside, our towing vehicle choices are limited. Pickup's are out.
Wanting a diesel I'm looking at a Jeep Grand Cherokee with the 3.0 V6 diesel, or a VW Touareg 3.0 V6 diesel.
I have driven the JGC and am impressed with the torque and power. The VW issues in the news has my concerns even though the 3.0 is not affected by the recall.
I plan on keeping the trailer weight at #5500 max. even though the towing capacity of the JGC is rated at #7200. #7600 on the VW.
Anyone out there towing with either of these SUV's? Will be towing out west, lots of hills & mountains. Wireman
