I looked one up ant it was 1700 pounds. Add a trailer and you're over 2000 poungs.

 

Is there anyway to find out what kind of tongue weight either vehicle can support? Considering my trailer doesn't have a tandem axle, a lot of weight can find itself being supported by the vehicle itself. I don't want the ass end squatting or becoming really wishy/washy with a load on it. I don't know if ~100 pounds is enough, but I just want to be sure. I'm such a n00b to trailer pulling.

 

Depends on the hitch, I thought.

 

Well... it does, but I'm talking more along the lines of what the rear suspension is capable of supporting.

 

I'm sure it can handle the tounge weight. Try standing on the bumper and see how much compresion you get...

 

In all reality I would go for the Edge even though I swore off Ford after owning 2. IMHO FJ was built as a concept - Edge was built as grasping straw to give Ford a chance to compete.

FJ reminds me of Japanese built Jeep knockoff although it does have "RECREATION" written all over it.

 

I thought I saw a picture of the trailer you were going to pull and it was very rectangular looking. Reminded me of a loaf of bread on wheels. Guess I was a bit too ambiguous.

 

The FJ doesnt really have that much room in the back seat for adults. I read somewhere you want to seat 4 adults so.
