tow vehicle suggestions
i am in the market for a vehicle that will see dual use as a daily
driver (40 freeway miles per day) and also for towing my jeep to the
trail.
i am trying to decide what kind of vehicle to get and i would like to
hear what others have to say on this. i need more a people hauler and
not a work vehicle so i have ruled out large pickups such as the
f-250. i also don't want to break the bank so i have ruled out high
end SUVs such as the hummer and escalade.
that leaves two options: 1. midsize SUVs such as the GMC Jimmy (sorry
cherokee fans - DCs website says you can only tow 2000 pounds, and i
figure a loaded trail jeep + full trailer is at least 5 or 6 thousand
pounds, which the jimmy can manage, just barely) or 2. heavy sedans
such as the cadillac seville, lincoln towncar, or mercedes e500.
anyone want to share their experiences with tow vehicles?
