What is the towing capacity of the 2016 Jeep Patriot?

I finally got myself a car, and I’m hoping to use it to move this summer. How much weight can a 2016 Jeep Patriot tow?

Whether moving locally or
out of state
, having the right car can make a world of difference. So long as you don’t have too much furniture, you’ll have no problem moving. That’s because the 2016
Jeep Patriot
has a towing capacity of 1,000 lbs.
If you want to verify this weight rating, all you have to do is:
  • Locate the
    VIN
    sticker and check the curb weight of the vehicle
  • Get a rough estimate of the combined weight of you, your fuel, and the things you’re moving
  • Take the car’s GCWR and subtract the total of the two previous figures from it
There you go—with this information in hand, you should have no problem finding the right vehicle to help you move. However, because every dollar counts when moving, you’ll also want to see if you can’t save some money on your car insurance. Thankfully, the
