  1. My 2.7 Big Bend towed my Fox Body Mustang PERFECTLY

    Plus Uhaul knows it's manufacturer rated to tow only 3,500. They ask both tow vehicle and what you're actually towing. They can do simple math (Assuming the OP correctly stated his tow vehicle)
  2. Pulling a Camper/Trailer with a 2.3T 7-speed 2-door

    I know there's a lot of variables when towing, but one common complaint on all these camper pages are how bad the gas mileage is when the tow vehicle is a Toyota Tacoma. Lack of power? Gearing? Don't know what it is, but there's something about the Tacoma.
  3. Pulling a Camper/Trailer with a 2.3T 7-speed 2-door

    Great point. I'm going by the rule of thumb being 250 pounds per person.
  4. Pulling a Camper/Trailer with a 2.3T 7-speed 2-door

    Thank you for your insight. I literally just discovered/looked in detail today on the Winny Micro mini. That trailer seems to come in a few hundred pounds heavier than the Lance and Escape Mini that are in that 2,800-2,900 dry weight range. I hope there's an integrated brake controller on the...
  5. Pulling a Camper/Trailer with a 2.3T 7-speed 2-door

    Rick, 33 years ago it was "Together Forever", now... a much different tune :ROFLMAO: :LOL: :ROFLMAO:
  6. Pulling a Camper/Trailer with a 2.3T 7-speed 2-door

    That's an interesting take. I haven't heard of anyone saying you can/should use the "C" in non-rock crawling takeoffs.
  7. Pulling a Camper/Trailer with a 2.3T 7-speed 2-door

    I have just some one off towing experience, so I don't know much, but I'd like to get a trailer that definitely fits under the 3,500 limit. Hopefully a few hundred pounds under. So my purchase will be driven by advice like yours and others. I watched a 4 door Wrangler video of a under 3,500...
  8. Pulling a Camper/Trailer with a 2.3T 7-speed 2-door

    I thought they would have then lowered the 2-door tow rating vs. the 4-door? I agree, that's why I'm hoping for some Wrangler experience comments.
  9. Pulling a Camper/Trailer with a 2.3T 7-speed 2-door

    Thanks. That makes sense, just not sure if it's a deal killer or not for the 7-speed.
  10. Pulling a Camper/Trailer with a 2.3T 7-speed 2-door

    I see the "Just spend a minute and Google" and "We've answered this OVER AND OVER"... replies all the time. Never thought I'd be on the receiving end of it. I couldn't find any input on the downside (If any) of a manual transmission so I was hoping Jeep owners would comment. I can't seem to...
  11. Pulling a Camper/Trailer with a 2.3T 7-speed 2-door

    It looks like the 3,500 pound towing capacity is more about vehicle dynamics instead of powertrain. Do you think there's a downside to pulling something near the capacity with a 2.3 manual? Are there any Jeep owners who pull something like this? How does it perform? Any thoughts if a manual...
