It's been an impressive tow vehicle.
here it is:

The 4.0 Engine is torquey and with a little bigger tire, gears, and mild lift, it does good in the snow. granted, it doesn't have the weight of an F-250 or Cummins, but towing a 2 place drive on/off and two sleds (Powder Extreme and Mountain Max) it does pretty good.
2 sleds and the trailer, (not sure if Sleddin'Daddy has a pic of it or not) is right close to 2000# and the Cherokee is still pulling strong even with close to 200,000 miles!
I am sure that if I really wanted or needed to, I think my Cherokee could do a 4 place but coming back down would get a little squirrelly unless I kept the speed down.
It's nice but I would rather have a big truck. Maybe after I get this divorce out of the way, I'll finally get one. For now, The XJ does nice.
