Hi folks,
I was looking at purchasing a 2011 r-pod 171. Dry weight about 2200lbs.
The issue is that my patriot (as far as I can see) is rated at the most for 2000lbs towing.
The dealer has offered a towing package. But is also saying that while I would have no issues towing he is offering me a power train warranty on the pat to cover any damages. This was my rather large red flag.
I am pretty sure even with the towing package installed, towing over capacity would null any extended warranty on the jeep, correct??
The patriot is a 2.4 4cyc engine 4WD
Does anyone have experience towing a 171 with a patriot??
Do I attempt it or run away from the "deal"??
Thanks!
PS complete newbie on towing anything...
