Re: [A/S] towing with a jeep-trying again

Cathy,

I don't think any of those are enough truck to control a 
trailer, even a 22 footer.

When you are in strong cross winds, with big trucks 
swooshing by, in the rain, and the guy in front of you slams 
on his brakes, you can't stop with a small vehicle, nor can 
you control what the trailer does behind you. It will throw 
you off the road.

"for the first 20' of trailer, you need
a minimum of 110" wheelbase.  For every foot of trailer 
after that,
their recommendation was an additional 4 inches of wheelbase. "

Is a good place to start.

You will hear about and even see people pulling with 
undersized and under powered towers. Some will get away with 
it, some will end up wrecked. Not worth it.
