We recently started Rv'in (August) with an Itasca Reyo. As we drove the highways, we always checked what others were towing. This site has also been very helpful in my understanding of what works/doesn't work. So we settled on a 2014 Jeep Patroit with the manual transmission and a curb weight of 3100 lbs. The Owners Manual states that it can be towed behind an RV with the transmission in neutral and the key switched to Accessories.
So we bought the Jeep and it is being setup by our RV dealer. They called and told me that the 12v cigarette lighter was not powered when the key is in Accessories position and they added an additional outlet for the brake device (RV Brake).
We will be picking it up Monday. But my wife asked me if the Jeep will log miles while being towed. I believe, from this forum, that the odometer is electric, and should not log miles while towing. Anyone have knowledge of the 2014 Jeep Patriot with manual transmission and odometer logging?
Thanks
