One of the pastimes that Texans love the most is road trips across our great state. Here in the Pearland, TX region, we have access to a huge variety of different outdoor activities across the state, and if you’re lucky enough to own a camper, you can easily combine a long road trip with camping. However, a major obstacle for some people is that most vehicles simply aren’t powerful enough to tow a full-size camper. Luckily, here at Gillman Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM, we carry a large number of powerful SUVs and pickup trucks that are more than capable of towing a camper thousands of miles.
2019 RAM 1500
Ever since the 2019 RAM 1500, the newest of RAM trucks, hit our lot, we’ve been enraptured by its stunning combination of luxury and power. This popular full-size pickup is the most capable RAM 1500 truck to date, and it boasts an optional 5.7-liter HEMI V8 engine with eTorque, which can tow up to 12,750 pounds. This beast cranks out 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque and can be paired with either an eight-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission.
2018 Jeep® Grand Cherokee
The 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee proves that you don’t need a pickup truck to tow a camper. This powerful off-road-focused SUV is an all-around performer with a few different engine options. The most powerful of these is the supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V8 engine, which cranks out an incredible 707 horsepower and 645 lb-ft of torque. This beast can tow up to 7,200 pounds and is matched to a durable all-wheel-drive system.
