What is the towing capacity of the 2000 Jeep Cherokee?

I was planning to take my girlfriend camping, but she wants to bring her parents' camper with us. I don’t know if my car can handle it, so how much can a 2000 Jeep Cherokee tow?

There’s nothing wrong with wanting to enjoy the great outdoors with a little indoor comfort as well, but you certainly don’t want to damage your car in the process! So long as the camper is not too big, you should be fine—because the 2000
Jeep Cherokee
has a towing capacity of 2,000 lbs.
If you need to use another vehicle to transport the camper, you can find that car’s towing capacity by:
  • Locating the car’s curb weight on the
    VIN
    sticker
  • Estimating the
    total weight
    on the vehicle by combining the weight of passengers, fuel, and cargo
  • Subtracting the combined total of the two figures from the car’s GCWR
Hopefully, this will help you know if your Jeep is up to the task. However, you’ll need more than a camper if you want to be safe on this, and all subsequent, adventures. The best protection you can have is through the right car insurance, and
