1Quik7 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 I need to get a new beater and need something that will be capable of towing horses. Not too picky, just looking for something that's not beat and can sit in front of the house without embarrassing the wife. Prefer an SUV, I already have a truck that sucks down the gas.

STEVE-O Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 How much weight would you need to tow? A grand cherokee is the first thing that comes to mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Quik7 Posted February 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 I'm thinking 5000lbs should be sufficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 The WJ Grand Cherokee with V8 and tow package is rated at 6500lbs. You should be able to find one in that price point. I will say they don't like neglect so look for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gergwheel1647545492 Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 I'd look into 2001+ chevy 2500's. There have been a few on here for around (some beloew) that price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbs3000 Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Yea, I would think SUV or Jeep. I would imagine any 4x4 truck in that price range will have been plowed to no end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
