In the category of things that keep you up at night. Has anyone had their breakaway cable pulled on their Jeep? The cable attachment is pretty prominent on the front of the Jeep. I noticed someone looking at it in a parking lot when the motorhome wasn't attached. The ring is shinny and I'm...

New onsite, still learning tricks to RVing

I have a 2021 Sunseeker 3010DS. I'm working on getting my 2021 Jeep ready to flat tow. I did this a few years ago with a 2018 Jeep but I see something new! I used the Blue Ox BX88206 Coiled cable but I wired it myself to the Jeep. Now I see this NEWSUN® Premium 4 Way Flat to 7 Blade Trailer...

I recently had a Blue Ox flat tow system added to my 2022 Berkshire XLT 45CA and 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon X. Every time we tow the Jeep the Jeep security alarm goes off a few miles down the road. Is there a special way to lock the Jeep so the alarm system is not armed to mitigate this issue...

Hi everyone -- might be a stupid question but since I am new to the RV world, I guess I'm allowed to ask ;-) I bought a new Isata 3 24FW 2023 and I'm looking to buy and tow a used Jeep Wrangler. The weight of the Wrangler is +/- 4,000 lbs. Based on the GCWR and GVWR, it looks like a good choice...

Hello everyone. I am new to the forums and have been reading a lot about trailering capacity and towing vehicles. I have a 2022 Jeep Gladiator Sport truck with the max towing package and the 4.10 axle ratio. Manual says my trailering capacity is 7600. I am interested in buying an Apex Ultra...

New here, I have a 2008 Jeep Wrangler 4x4 with manual transmission. I am currently working to add the Blue Ox tow base plate, Blue Ox Acent tow bar, all the wiring including the lights with charge, and Blue Ox Patriot brake system so I can flat tow. My Jeep doesn't have manual locking hubs. I am...

Hi! My husband and I took our first road trip together, camped with my brother and caught the bug. I previously owned a Casita, love fiberglass campers and how well they hold their value. I like the Escape floor plan better! We have a 2021 4 door Jeep Wrangler. Tow capacity 3500 lbs. Based on...

Anyone know where I can find out the max towing capacity of the E 450 Ford (Gas) Class C camper? Looking at the four door Jeep wrangler trim lines but don’t know where I can find the max weight allow that I can tow. Actually, talked with a couple at the campground this year and they told me no...

We own a 2018 Forest River Forester 2401 MBS. We purchased a 2016 Jeep Wrangler Sport (2-door) to flat tow, were told by our RV shop that they couldn't handle it (rigging for flat-tow) since it had a "custom" bumper--which seems weird. They said it would require a custom pull hitch. If anyone...

This well-maintained, tow-ready Jeep will take you wherever you want to go, shade you and all your friends when the sun is making everyone else miserable, and give you a quick and comfy place to sleep--pretty much anywhere you can get level. It makes a great towed vehicle for side expeditions...

Looking for a newer Wrangler. Q is. Does anyone tow there’s using a Off Road front bumper instead of a Base Plate and if so what make Thanks

Hi All, I am towing my trailier 5000 pounds with Jeep Grand Cherokee 2021 5.7L Hemi. The car does not have a 2WD. It always run in 4WD full time as the dealer call it, It only has the following setting Auto, Sand Rock, and Sport. I have blown my transfer case once, and do not want to...

After 2 years since upgrading from a 5th wheel to a MH, my DW and I consolidated our three vehicles to two new ones before we retire next year. For the past two years we have used a 2016 Nissan Versa with manual transmission as our toad. Our MH is a 2022 Berkshire 40-D with a 10K Lb towing...

I have a 2019 FR Wolf Pup Limited with an axle flip lift (4" of lift). My family and I love to boondock on the beach but the soft sand can be challenging to drive on. To remedy this (on a budget) I'm looking to buy and install 15" wheels from a Jeep TJ, which is the same bolt pattern. Then I'm...

Have a Blue Ox tow bar with cables and hookup pins for the baseplate. Am ready to order a new baseplate for the new style jeep. Have an opportunity to grab a brake buddy for under $500, or an invisibrake for around $700. Thoughts, opinions, advice? Also planning to order the electrical kit to...

I'm looking to purchase an 2016 rpod 179. Dry weight is 2781 lbs. My Jeep is a v6 3.6lt but the axle is a Dana 44 3.21 gear ratio.it came with the tow package from the dealer. From what I've been reading its rated to tow only 2000lbs. I've called the RV dealerships and they say it would do it...

Hello! I am currently camping in a small pop up and considering purchasing a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee V8 Limited 4wd and part of the appeal is that I could upgrade to a bigger trailer. I was drawn to this tv partly because it has a 7,200 pound towing capacity. There is no problem with...

Does anyone tow a Jeep Wrangler with a Sprinter platform RV? How does it do? At around 4000 lbs the Wrangler is under the limit but is the Sprinter stout enough to pull that much across county? I have a Dynamax Isata 3.

Hello all. I am posting this in the interest of having you experts weigh in on the info I have gathered and if I am on the right track. I have a 17 Jeep GC Overland v6 with 6200lbs towing and 620 tongue weight. Pulling a 22 FR Salem FSX at 4830 GVW and 430 at hitch. I am new to all this and...

Just thought I would post this in case anyone found a little extra storage in the cab of their M2 a luxury they might like. I took a gamble on ordering this console that was made for an older Jeep CJ/Wrangler, but couldn't be happier with the outcome. It comes with a bracket for mounting it, or...

We just got our 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee flat tow set up installed. On my flat street I went through the steps for Preparing it for Flat towing as described in the manual which was successful Then we followed the procedure for Shifting out of N, as I would when disconnecting. All seemed to go...

Happy New Year, Everyone! I want to replace one of our cars with something I can flat tow, and the Cherokee just fits most of our needs. I've never driven one, so I have no idea of how they stack up as far as driving dynamics go. One of the traits we look for in a vehicle is stability in...

OK - maybe it's not possessed but it sure seems like it. We purchased a 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL New Unlimited Sport S 3.6L V6 to tow flat behind our GT7. This is what started randomly happening after just a month of ownership. It loses the electronic power steering and then all types of error...

We have been looking at TOAD options for our sunseeker MBS. We'd like to get a 4 door jeep but it looks like the lightest advertised curb weight we can find is right around 4200 - 4400LBS and max tow on my rig is 4200lbs. Are there any Sunseeker MBS owners out there flat towing 4 door jeeps...
