i am in the market for a vehicle that will see dual use as a daily driver (40 freeway miles per day) and also for towing my jeep to the trail.
i am trying to decide what kind of vehicle to get and i would like to hear what others have to say on this. i need more a people hauler and not a work vehicle so i have ruled out large pickups such as the f-250. i also don't want to break the bank so i have ruled out high end SUVs such as the hummer and escalade.
that leaves two options: 1. midsize SUVs such as the GMC Jimmy (sorry cherokee fans - DCs website says you can only tow 2000 pounds, and i figure a loaded trail jeep + full trailer is at least 5 or 6 thousand pounds, which the jimmy can manage, just barely) or 2. heavy sedans such as the cadillac seville, lincoln towncar, or mercedes e500.
anyone want to share their experiences with tow vehicles?
