Disco 2 tow a 32FT camper?
Anyone know the towing capabilities of a 04 D2? I'm looking into getting a older 32ft long camper and was hoping My Disco could handle the load..... really dont want to invest in a second vehicle just to tow the camper, but I'm open to suggestions.
PS: I have absolutely no idea how much these campers weigh, always assumed they were light weight due to the thin walls and cheap flooring...
1996 Thor Chateau Travel Trailer 29'...good cond.
1994 32 foot gulfstream tag-a-long camper
1989 Prarie Schooner 37 foot 5th wheel camper

1.) Not all SUVs that people tow with even HAVE low range.
2.) Why is it pointless? There are plenty of scenarios where you would tow in low range, and knowing the max allowed is far from "pointless."

Where would you tow with low range? My guess would be not on the highway since the top speed will be drastically reduced.

Not everything on the D2 was built with suburban America in mind.

So is it possible to upgrade the hitch and suspension to better handle the large load? Anything I can do to increase towing capacity? I have no problem using low range on back country roads to haul the camper. Im not looking to lug the camper on a long trip or frequent trips, just want to be able to pick it up and bring it to a permanent spot where it will serve as a 4 season home. So really need a 32 footer.
I guess the only other option is a Pace Arrow, and just tow my Disco on the back of it...
