After coming out of a ‘22 Tundra hybrid, I was concerned I’d be underwhelmed by the Gren. Actually, I was very pleasantly surprised. It tows great. I’m glad that Ineos kept off-roading as the primary concern when they added the towing option. However, due to the spare tire and the hitch lication being so far forward of the bumper, an extender is going to be a necessity.
It’s a 16’ Basecamp designed to get in to tight, out of the way places. It’s lifted and angled for a more aggressive off-road stance. The A frame is occupied by two propane tanks and the hood you see in the picture. But you're correct. The electric jockey wheel is something I added over the winter. I may go back to the manual jack.
I saw the same trailer with a similar electric tongue jack, but it was clocked 90 degrees from how yours is attached, not sure if that would work or even add enough room or if it is even possible with your current setup. Electric tongue jacks are certainly nice tho. Even on a lighter weight trailer.
Yes, this is possible. I saw it on a YouTube video, but I cannot find it now. I thought it was 13 Adventures. Good content regardless.
I was thinking the same thing
The distance from the center of the rear axles to the towing ball is relatively short on the Grenadier compared to many other vehicles.Therefore I don't think an extender is too much of an issue.
Australia never really had their own automotive company, but their automotive aftermarket is second to none for innovation. Some of the most useful coolest crap comes out of that near empty continent. It's never a useless widget or grift.
I was up to 70 mph, maybe a little more. I didn’t notice the trailer behind me. I expect our 5,000 lb boat will be a different issue. I’ll update.
Cattle. All very normal farming to and fro , except for the 15 month wait for the Grenny. One more sleep and I shall know if my heart was right when I took the plunge .
