Flat towing with my Class C

[StaceyH1977]

I was torn as to which forum to put this in but since the question is more regarding how the motorhome will do I decided to put it here.

I have a 2016 Coachman Freelander, 33', Ford Chassis with the V-10. I currently have a 2014 Grand Cherokee Summit which weighs in at about 5500 lbs. So, is within the weight the RV can pull, rated at 7500 lbs. I have the opportunity to trade for a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited which weighs around 4300 lbs.

Is the difference of 1200 lbs going to make a huge/noticeable difference when it comes to pulling a vehicle? In your opinion, would you prefer to pull the Wrangler over the Grand Cherokee?

Thanks!!

Definitely noticeable. you're not talking 300 or 400 lbs. you're talking over 1/2 a ton.

Yes. Always the less weight, the better.

More than a thousand pounds less towed weight will be very significant.
