[Rhodes22-list] Trailering weight

[Mark Kaynor]

Tim,

Congratulations! You've made a great choice. We tow our 1988 "Raven" with a
1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer V8 w/no problems. As long as the Explorer is rated
for over 4,000 lbs towing and your brakes are in good shape, you should be
fine. Raven and her single-axle trailer, loaded w/ most of the stuff we keep
on board, weigh in at just about 4,000 lbs.

Greetings All,

 

I wrote a few months back as a 'Potential Rowdy', and enjoyed all your
feedback.  I am happy to say that I am writing today as a 'next season
Rowdy'!!  (i.e.  I put my deposit down, picked up my bottle of Mt. Gay, and
made some color choices:-) !!)  

 

With all the trailer discussion going on I was getting a little nervous.  I
have an 89 Ford Explorer 4wd, automatic V6.  Does anyone think I would have
trouble pulling a Recycled 87??

 

What is the dry weight of the Rhodes22??  Real weight with equipment etc.??


 

Thanks in advance!!

 

Tim
