Tow Question, 1999 National Sea View

We recently purchased a 1999 Sea View with a Ford 275hp V10. Since we have no owners manual I'm not certain about towing a 2001 Grand Cherokee. At 4,300 lbs, is this vehicle too heavy? A service guy at a local RV center tells me I need to stay below 4,000 lbs. in a dingy. Thanks.

Check the weight data plate and see what your combined gross vehicle weight. Weigh the coach add that to the weight of the Jeep. That will tell you. What class hitch is installed?

If yours is like mine the hitch is rated for 5000 lbs and a 500 lbs tongue weight. As long as you don't go over the gross combined weight you should be OK
