towing capacity

I grew up tent camping, but with grandchildren on the way am looking to upgrade to a trailer. I own a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee V6, 3.6L with a towing capacity of 6,200 lbs. Did not get the tow package installed when I bought it (looking back that was probably not a smart idea), but will be...

Previously I shied away from the van based Class C's because they ALL had 5,000lb towing capacity and given the vehicle that I would be towing, I wanted more capacity in order to tow safely. Now I see manufacturers Claiming 7,000 and 8,000lb towing capabilities on the E450 based Class C's...

I am about to purchase a 2015 Windjammer 3006WK but am not sure my truck can tow it! I assumed since my truck's max tow rating was 9500lbs, I could easily tow the 3006WK (GVWR 8750lbs); however, after using the towing calculator it seems I can only tow 3700lbs?? I need help trying to figure...

Anyone out there haul a small trailer with the Subaru Outback? We just bought a Rockwood a122 and are ready to pick it up tomorrow. After years of researching, talking about tongue weights and fully loaded trailers, and talking with several different dealers about what the Subaru can haul, we...

I'm about to pull the trigger on purchasing a 2004 Forest River Sunseeker 2900 on a Ford E450. My first RV of any kind. It will primarily be used for going camping with the local horse club, which brings me to my question... What was the tow rating of this unit as manufactured? My horse...

We've been towing our 4400 lb jeep with no issues but was also thinking about setting up our f-150 with a curb weight of 5700lb. I know the hitch is rated for 10k so no problem there but the listed capacity is 5k due to the gvr being 28k and gcwr 33k. My question is we weighed our coach twice...

I'm a newbie considering a Salem TT with listed dry weight of 6500. Tundra manual and online research shows this 2007 Tundra 4.7 4X4 can handle 7800 lbs. of towing. Still, can't seem to locate a good resource to calculate all the weight variables. Some show I'm fine with this much trailer others...

Hi - We've been towing a travel trailer (~ 7,000 lbs fully loaded) with our 2011 Dodge Ram 2500 for the past 2-3 years. We're looking at upgrading to a fifth wheel but not quite sure what yet. I was hoping to see what others are using this truck for. Our truck is a 2011 Dodge Ram 2500 Short...

Hi everyone! Total newb here, we are considering moving from lightweight tent traveling [if it doesn't fit in the backpack it doesn't go] to a TT/HTT/Pop-up. I have read the posts over and over to get my head around the weight/size of any potential trailer. I'm not sure if I have it figured out...

Hello, My name's Sandy, & I'm very interested in Purchasing a 1994 18' Hi-Lo Towlite. :confused: :o Trailer is in great condition, but the seller is a widower & doesn't know much about it as it belonged to spouse. Trailer's missing Owner's manual, & seller wasn't sure how to lower top, though...

Could anybody tell me what my towing capacity is on my 2007 Chevrolet Silverado (New style not Calssic) 1500 4x4 Crew Cab LTZ Shortbed, 5.3L, 3.73 gear ratio? Also has 20" wheels. Thinking about pulling a Flagstaff 27RLSS or V-Lite 28 WRBS. I have been told conflicting stories. Thanks in...
