I was wondering if these can tow at all. I have an Aspen right now and it does the job fine im just looking for something different. I love these trucks and was just wondering if A. can they tow at all? ( i know they have the center exit exhaust). and B. if they can, how much? thanks

not at all. i just need something to pull at least 6500 pounds. I like the aspen, but im more of a sporty driver. Ive been lookin to go for sumtin else and i love the GC SRT-8.

Im between

Chevy Trailblazer SS Tows 6600 4WD
Audi Q7 Tows 6700 4WD
GC SRT-8 ???
Porsche Cayenne V-6 Tows 6900 4WD

Since the Q7 and Cayenne would be V6 theyre not sporty but much more luxury than the aspen. If i cant upgrade the sportiness its gunna be the luxury/style

Out of curiosity where would the trailer hitch go given the exhaust is center mounted. I was considering a new truck and liked what the jeep offers but needed to be able to tow jet skis and quads.

Thanks

i dont think they really aimed at towing with that jeep.

Here is a trailer hitch that circumnavigates the exhaust:
Gross weight capacity is only 2000 lbs and toung weight is 200lbs

Mopar has yet to release a hitch
