Considering a 2011 Jeep Overland

Recommended Posts

I posted a query on iRV2 and had only 2 responses. I assume that no one has one as a Toad. My concern is the weight. My Subaru Baja is about 2K lbs less than the Jeep. I have a Workhorse with the Banks System and Ultr-Chip. I don't want to overwhelm it and drop the gas milage by purchasing a heavy vehicle.

An additional concern is the towing capacity rating of your chassis/coach.

Remember, the weakest link dictates. That may or may not be the hitch. Transmission, brakes, frame extensions, etc may lower the ratings.

It's a 2008 38' Winni Voyage on a Workhorse with a 8.1 engine and a 6 speed Allison tranny so I'm not the least bit concerned about the things you mentioned. Also it has the Roadmaster All Terrain towbar that's rated at 8k lbs if I remember right. I do appreciate the input
