New Aire Toad?
Given the New Aire smaller size, turning radius, engine, cameras, and electronics, what tow vehicles are you pulling? What is working? What does not? I Does it work thru steep grades? I am looking for recommendations? I am thinking Jeep 4 door. Just want to make sure something else might work with New Aire unique attributes.

The Buick Envision is a great vehicle and easy to pull at any speed without running the engine every couple hours.

Wrangler JL
I did a lot of research on this for the exact reason you’re inquiring.
We’re thinking we’ll get the new Wrangler JL later this year. It will be lighter than the JK.
Jeeps have a solid history towing 4 down, so you can’t go wrong there.
And most important...DW has always wanted a Wrangler

Do you think the extra weight will make a difference on the New Aire?

Pretty sure the Jeep Wrangler is the only approved TOAD for the NA.

Nice rig! Road master, Blue Ox, or Airforce tow equipment? I ordered Moonbeam exterior also.

The wrangler actually weighs more than the Buick Envision and the Envision is much more comfortable.

We just purchased a Dodge Durango for the 3 rows of seats for great grandkids. Got a close color match to the 18 London Aire. Had to look hard for a 4x4 with 2 speed transfer case to flat tow.
