We’re looking into getting a 17’ or 18’ Forest River "Roo" Hybrid Travel Trailer. The 17’ ROO has a GVWR of 3,860, and the 18’ has a GVWR of 4,475. We are also considering a Ford Explorer with a tow package and towing capacity of 5,000.
We are planning many camping trips, to include a trip across the US, which would entail towing through the mountains. So will the Explorer with the 5,000 towing capacity work, or will we need to step up to the Explorer with the 7,000 towing capacity?
Thank you
