Although the 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee may not be as powerful for towing as larger SUVs or trucks, it still has a respectable towing capacity of 5,000 pounds. When dividing this by ten for maximum tongue weight, you're left with 500 pounds which is sufficient for towing most small to midsize trailers or campers. This means you should have no trouble pulling reasonably sized boats. Depending on your setup, you can generate between 230 and 295 lb-ft of torque, providing a good amount of acceleration for a midsize SUV. With a payload capacity ranging from 1,182 to 1,432 pounds, it's a solid choice for weekend getaways by yourself or with your family.
