Whoever wanted Info on Towing TM w Jeep Cherokee

Not to burst anyone's bubble or anything, but in talking with a guy who worked at a transmission shop for years and years, he said both the Cherokee's and Grand Cherokee's weren't very good for towing as it was too taxing on the transmission, causing them to eventially fail. About a year ago I was admiring a really nice white newer Grand Cherokee 5.2L V-8 in his shop that was lifted, had larger tires, looked really beefy and nice, when I inquired to my friend about it, he said "yeah, but the kid that owns it wants to use it to haul a trailer, I keep telling him it's not good for towing, but he's insisting." I asked him why? And that was the answer he gave me. I would suggest calling a few local transmission shops and asking them what they think as they're the one's who you will be dealing with if that one guy was right. It certainly wouldn't hurt at any rate, and might actually save you a lot of grief in the future............
