i have, depending on the event.

but in all reality, i would rather drive my heep the 400kms to the trails. i refuse to turn mine into a trailer queen.
if i break that bad, that's what CAA is for.

I can only tow anything at the moment with my Jeep, which means my other Jeep is getting towed, but the Jeep that's stock is the Jeep getting towed...

So I guess I'd tow or be towing a Jeep with another Jeep so I guess it doesn't matter...

Wait, why would I tow something? I don't know if it applies to the Jeep crowd as it does the car crowd, but, unless it's race/trail only...

Trailer Queens are for p***ies.

anything over an hour away it goes on the trailer, just makes things easier if I break.

That last three I've bought I towed home after the purchase. Don't have to drive far around here to do some wheeling so never towed them to go to a trail.

If I had the money to buy another one (which I'm hoping I'll be able to start a small fleet of vehicles), I'll make it the trailer queen that won't even use ramps to get on the trailer

i've driven my built jeeps, and my dd to the trails. i've been very lucky, i think i wheel smart, but i've still made trail repairs. i want a tow vehicle in the worst way.

doesn't wear out those big expensive tires, and if something seriuos breaks, gears, knuckles, engine parts, its nice to be able to slap it on a trailer.

i want a dodge 2500 cumins 4x4, in the worst way.
