08/06/06: Trailer Life Magazine - Engage & Command
Trailer Life Magazine has a feature article about Jeep's all-new full-size Commander as a tow vehicle.
Trailer Life Magazine"The Commander uses some familiar technologies and components throughout its drivetrain. The optional 5.7-liter Hemi engine boasts impressive power output that's well-managed and routed to the road via a 545RFE five-speed automatic transmission. Included in the engine is the Multi-Displacement System (MDS), which turns the V-8 into a V-4 by deactivating unneeded cylinders under light load or modest acceleration.
The Commander drives and tows much as we've come to expect from a modern SUV. It's in control of the trailer and responds well to the demands of the road. Steering and braking happen as expected, with no functional surprises."
