Has anyone towed a TT with a 2021 GC?

The site says 6200 lbs for towing, I'm wondering what kind of trailer I should buy.

Answer or opinion will depend on what drivetrain it has.
You could have anything from sub 300hp and base model brakes to 700hp and 6 piston Brembos.

You cannot go by a website,promotional materials, commercials, or even the owners manual.
You need to look at the particular vehicle by VIN to see the actual capabilities,and installed equipment.

Not sure about the 2021 but last summer saw one pulling a modest 24ft trailer up a steep grade...except to park road was dead level.

Check the payload limits. A 6200lb trailer is going to have a hitch weight of around 800-900lb. Add in people and gear in the jeep and it may struggle to stay within payload limits.

I'd be looking at single axle trailers under 20ft and make sure to get a good weight distributing hitch.
