Hi Wilson,

I would get the long Ford pickup... wait, I already did <g>

The key to a great tow vehicle is a long, wide wheelbase and low center of 
gravity....

You Jeep doesn't have that.

I pull a 25' trailer with my crew cab short bed Ford F-250....  

I wouldn't pull anything with a Jeep, but if I had to it would be a Bambi at 
most.
