Thing is. All those choices are FWD vehicles, Even the AWD is FWD based with a power take off to the rear wheels. And FWD does not a great TV make, for anything more than a popup.
Remember. You trailer removes weight from the front of the vehicle, and in a FWD vehicle. The front end is doing everything, from the pulling, the steering, and most of the braking. The rear is just along for the ride.
Yes a WDH returns some of the weight to the front. IF the vehicle's frame can stand it. Man y FWD vehicles cannot use a WDH. But you can take it to Can Am and have it heavily modified to tow. Not cheap.
