As a side project, my FG/X XR6 Turbo manual ute had issues... only being able to legally tow a maximum of 1200kg. The wife's car was 12 months old and could tow 1800kg, and is a lease vehicle, so not suitable to upgrade too soon. The ute's hanging around, so the cheaper option was to buy a cheap second hand 4x4, which I could fix up, and wouldn't mind leaving unattended at a boat ramp overnight some time in the future.
Enter the tow pig... a Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited, 5 speed auto, 4.7l Hemi V8, heated seats, leather interior. For $1250
The suspension was shagged, engine, gearbox and diffs leak.
