What is the towing capacity of the 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

I want to take the family on a cross-country road trip this summer to break in our new camper. Before we start planning, though, what is the towing capacity on a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

Road trips
are a great way for a family to bond and make lasting memories if done right, so it’s good to know that you’re planning. Luckily, you should have no problem with a mid-sized camper, because the 2006
Jeep Grand Cherokee
has a towing capacity of 3,500 to 7,200 lbs. You can find this information on your own by simply:
  • Finding the curb weight of your car—check the VIN sticker
  • Add on
    additional weight
    like passengers, fuel, and luggage
  • Subtract this total from the vehicle’s GCWR—normally located on the door sticker
With this information in hand, you and your family should have a great time this summer. Of course, no road trip planning is complete without upgrading your car insurance, and the
