Verifying tow number

The trailer we are looking at is the sonic 220vbh
It's gvwr is 5200 lbs
Dry toung wt is 390
Dry shipped wt (no propane, or battery yes to takns) 4251 lbs

On a lighter note (pun intended) hubs and I now have incentive to drop the extra 15 lbs we are both sporting lol

You're limit will likely not be GCWR, but that 720 receiver limit or payload.

You need to verify the as equipped payload. Open the driver's door and locate this sticker on the door or jam. Note what is listed where mine says 2051:



Will you have 900 pounds of people and cargo inside the Jeep or is that your estimate for things you can pack in the RV too?


720 pound loaded TW means about 5500 pounds loaded, or 4500-5500 pounds dry.

With your weights stated, you will have about 750 lbs of payload remaining but I would doubt that as the Jeep GC will not have 1650 of beginning payload before cargo and passengers are loaded. As was mentioned, look for the loading sticker on the driver's side door jamb.

BTW, brochure weights, especially that listed tongue weight, will not be accurate. You can count on the tongue weight being a couple of hundred pounds higher than 390 lbs.

The above number did come off the door thanks

With such a limited CCC and a family of 4 plus a dog using this trailer my bet is your biggest problem will be preventing this trailer's GVW with it loaded & ready to camp from exceeding it's GVWR of just 5200 lbs. Assuming GVW=GVWR that means it's gross tongue weight at even just 13% will be ~ 675 lbs so no doubt you'll be at the very limits of your tow vehicle with little payload capacity to spare. This isn't a combination I would enjoy but if you're really careful with what you load in the trailer I suppose it's doable ... but certainly not "comfortable". It's all a little late now though as you've apparently purchased this trailer. ;)
