Hello Garth,

My wife just bought a 2014 Kia Sorento EXV6, which we both love.

We have also bought a new 2013 Jayco Jayfeather Ultra light 197 travel trailer that I intended to tow with my aging Grand Jeep Cherokee, which was fitted-out for towing. It had an argument with some wild life and lost and had to be written off. You can probably guess my question. Can the Sorento be set up to safely tow the Jayfeather or do I need to replace the Jeep?

Hi Doug and Fiona,

Kia rates your Sorento to be able to tow 3,500 pounds. The Sorento is a very comfortable SUV with a strong engine.

The Jayco UltraLite 197 weighs 3570 pounds dry. I will send a copy of this to Andy Thomson at Can-Am RV Centre for his recommendation.
