Towing a trailer?

[ARBO]

I have a class II towing package on my 11 AWD limited. From what I can find, I should have a 3500# towing capacity. If so, is there any small size travel trailer I could tow, only a tent trailer, or what size RV trailer?

Is anybody towing such things?

We plan to check at RV store but I'm thinking selling might be their priority. I could use some input.

Thanks!!

You’re in luck.

With the economy we’ve enjoyed the last few years most manufactures are DOWN sizing.

 

Take a look at Palomino and Traverse made by Palomino.

Clipper and Viking made by Coachmen.

I Googled "folding camping trailer”

You shouldn’t have any trouble finding a pop-up (folding trailer) that has a less than 3K GVW.

 

Good luck

And enjoy

Or if you like a little bit of class and a touch of nostalgia, my current goal is to build (but you can find them) one of these vintage 50's teardrop trailers !

Thanks. That shows me that I can only haul very small trailers, like tent and tear drop. I was hoping I could tow something big enough to have a toilet, shower and A/C. I couldn't find the weights on small trailers. Oh well, at least I have a comfortable ride to a motel.

Try livinlite.com All aluminum travel trailers and towy haulers. They have travel trailers starting at 1500lbs that can be towed by Mini Coopers!
