Please. It in not a wonder Jeep/FLAT, it is a Wonder Jeep/Merc. Same chassis as a GL350.

Also three seat vans/pick-em-ups (except LWB) do not have that 3:1 wheelbase to hitch lever ratio. Is a big reason it handles a 460 lb tongue weight with minimal attitude change. And 12+" disks on all four does not hurt. I ordered it specifically for towing after looking at a LOT of candidates and after only GM cars since 1978 was my first MOPAR because it was better.

Now since I bought it in '12 I've seen some others that might be as good or better but I tend to keep cars I like for decades.

Not disagreeing that most vehicles (and all that do not have a factory towing package) and drivers would probably benefit from a WDH and if my TM had a 5k axle I might have one also. It doesn't.

Or maybe just because I drive gentle when towing.
