I recently purchased a VERY clean '99 Montero with the winter package (lockers). My intention was to use it for a summer camping trip out west (4-6 weeks) and I planned on getting a light-weight offroad trailer with a RTT on it as well. Well, my wife has informed me that she is not crazy about the RTT setup and would much prefer a pop-up camper setup for this type of trip (which I realize will also keep us more on the beaten path as well
). I know the Montero would pull it just fine on flatland and some limited hill pulling like we see in the North Ga mountains, but on this trip we are talking about spending alot of time in the much bigger mountains out west so I'm concerned about the Montero's ability to tow under those circumstances. So, for those of you with experience, do you think the Montero is up to it or should I just bite the bullet and start looking for a 4x4 Suburban/Tahoe/Yukon?
