Lloyd,
If you are considering a new Jeep, be sure to check out the towing capability. Some of the new electronic transfer cases aren't towable in the smaller Jeep models.

Loydd,
To tow a 4 wheel drive Jeep, it must have a true neutral in the transfer case. If there is no neutral position in the transfer case, it is not towable.

Loyd,

We tow a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee.  Very easy to hook up and go.  Also using Air Force 1 brake, works off the on board air.

I really like how quick it is to set for towing.  

Regards,

Bill
