Weight

The Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.0 V6 CRD with a Bailey Senator Wyoming with an actual weight of 1635 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.

The motor preformance of the Jeep is in general very good. And also the weight of the Bailey with a normally distributed User Payload (200 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is good.

Performance

 

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Jeep is more than sufficient (check this in your vehicle documents).
  • If you passed your driving test after 1 January 1997, you will need a B+E driving license.
  • Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 68%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 74%.
  • There is a small chance of snaking at higher speeds, strong side winds and thoughtless driving. Even if the combination normally feels stable, the forces by deflection side to side are great at high speed. For drivers with knowledge of, and experience in driving a caravan it is safe to drive, but proper and careful loading is still important! An electronic stability system in the car and / or on the caravan is worth considering.
  • Recommended noseweight is 90 kg.
  • Safe speed up to 62 mph (100 km/h).
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 181 points.

If the caravan starts to snake you should reduce your speed and slow down directly! Lift your feet off the accelerator and brake gradually. Hold the steering wheel into a fixed position.

Conclusion

  • Performance is very good.
  • If the caravan is well loaded safe driving is possible.
  • It's a perfect match!

 

Influence of User Payload on stability

Weight distribution and noseweight are vital in obtaining a stable caravan.

Distribute the User Payload by yourself in the caravan and the car and then find out the stability rating of your loading configuration.

User Reviews

Doug Findlay reviewed a Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.0 V6 CRD:

"Just returned from 2 weeks towing my Bailey Unicorn Barcelona (2012) with my Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.0 CRD (2007). We went to the Outer Hebrides and encountered all types of roads which the jeep tackled effortlessly. This is by far the best tow car i have ever owned and I have been caravaning over 30 years. MPG was 22 over 860 miles covered which is not had for types of roads and steep inclines we encountered. I would recommend this car to anyone who has a bigger unit to tow."
