Made a decision! Trading in the mini Cooper for a 2007 Jeep Liberty 4x4. So next question, what tow bar and braking system do you recommend?

On the 2008 Ford Edge, are there any special steps you have to take? Like running engine every xxx hours, etc?

Thank you for the replies. For the Jeep Libert owners, is it also your everyday car or just your tow vehicle? Wondering how the Liberty works for both purposes.

I recently purchased a 2008 37' Windsport Class A MH. I currently own a 2007 Mini Cooper automatic and a 2008 Ford Expedition (used to pull the old travel trailer).

I'm thinking of selling both vehicles for one mid sized SUV, automatic (dad never taught me how to drive a stick!), 4WD or AWD, 2011 or 2012. Was looking at Ford's Edge and Escape but have read too many threads about transmission issues and dead batteries. So I'm thinking Honda CRV or a Jeep.

What are the recommendations these days for an automatic SUV 2011-2012 vehicle?

Or should I keep the mini and tow it on a dolly?!! I just can't decide....help!
