    Towing a 4-Door Jeep Wrangler

    Considering purchasing a 2021 GT5 34H5 soon but concerned about the 5000 towing capacity. Our Jeep is 5500 lbs., probably a stupid question but will the additional 500 lbs. truly be a concern? Disclaimer, we are newbies and trying to do our due diligence before we pull the trigger.
