[QUOTE="Tom_H, post: 432213, member: 19786"] This is not an exact match, just sharing my experience. A few months back we purchased our 2018 Jeep Wrangler 4 Door JK, it has the 3.21 with automatic 6 speed transmission. We have a 6x12 enclosed v-nose trailer We took some scrap metal to the junk yard/recycler. I did not feel comfortable at anything over 70mph on the highway. MPG was 13. I agree with nydiesel, I wouldn't want to travel up north 8 hours pulling this trailer, maybe if I kept the speed at 60 mph it would be ok ? We have a 14 foot aluminum boat. We pulled it about 1/2 hour to indoor/winter storage. I'd say our Jeep pulled it so well - I hardly noticed it was back there. In upcoming May and August 2021, we will be towing our boat 8 hours north.. fingers crossed our Jeep will pull our small boat as well as our Chevrolet Traverse did. [/QUOTE]
