why such a high budget?
granted I havent towed with it yet but my 99 superduty diesel, a 18fty 10k trailer and im in under 10k right now. My point is if your not daily driving save a couple coins and get aiming so high.
With 25k im towing with a raptor..... assuming I buy one eric style with a salvage title.

^^ What Scott said.
I love the 3rd generation Dodge quad cabs. Don't know anything about the aftermarket stuff but it all sounds good.
Some comfy power seats, A/C, good mpg's. Tow the XJ anywhere you want to go in style.
And definately an 18 or 20 ft trailer. I've had a 16 footer in the past and it just didn't seem big enough.
Then you can get a 4wheel Offroad pop up truck camper with all the comforts of home while camping.
Livin the high life.
Yeeeaaaahhh.

For 25k you can get a full on moving house. I have total of 16k into my 97 motorhome and both Jeeps but no trailer yet.

Crew cab duramax. Like the cummins but their auto's are junk and shifting gets old quick.

that's my second choice, the the lack of Gooseneck ability turns me off, Eventually i want a 32ft goose with a Camper on the front and the jeep on the back..
7.3 Excursion is THE most badass SUV tow-rig tho!
Brilliant. X2. 1990 XJ with Hf tow hitch rack
X2 Thats where its at!

Spend $2.5k on a really good used pop-up and then use the other $17.5k on gas to go wheelin' every weekend.

I'm probably gonna go with a 7.3 ford. Unless I can get a good deal on a 2nd gen cummins. I'm now trying to fit a early 00's mustang and a tow rig for the price of my challenger. So I won't have as nice of a tow rig as I had hoped haha.

We have had great luck with 7.3 Fords running back and forth to Nevada for desert races for years.
