My parents used to pull our 18ft bass rig with a grand Cherokee and it didnt handle it all that well. Granted the bass boat is a heavy fucker but it turned into a gas drinking dog! It does pull my hunting boat just fine though.

My wife has a 2014 Jeep Cherokee. V8 Hemi. It hauls ass but she would shit if I hooked it up to my duck sled and took it hunting. But that heated steering wheel and seats would be nice to sit in after a good cold hunt.

I pull my boat around locally with a 2003 wrangler with an 4.0. It does fine short distance but I don't pull it on the highway. Also you have to plan your stops ahead of time.
