Thinking about getting a travel trailer and wanted some advice. I have a stock Overland - there are no plans to lift or put larger tires on the Overland.
Years ago I pulled a Fleetwood highwall tent trailer (loaded around 3600) with a Jeep Liberty. I had no problems towing that trailer at 55 to 60 mph on the highway.
With my new Gladiator Overland (with factory tow package), I am reconsidering entering into the RV world.
The trailer I am looking at is the Forest River Flagstaff Micro Lite 21FBRS. (from product literature) dry weight is 4171, hitch weight is 412.
I have found alot of information on this forum about towing with Sport (max tow), and Rubi, but not much with the Overland. With the Overland's max tow at 6000 pounds, is this a good trailer to pull? 90% of my towing will be in Oklahoma (flat land), and I don't drive over 60 while towing. I also don't plan on towing with full tanks on the RV.
I will be towing with WDH with sway control, and a brake controller. Is this trailer too much for the Overland? Or can I go even bigger with the Overland (I found several trailers that I like but weigh more)?
Thanks for the advice
