    @4ncar I know you are towing a 320, but do you think the Colorado would do ok with a 400? The tow rating seems great for a mid size truck. 
    As Denny has said, yes! If you can get the diesel, I would highly recommend it.  As to the overall performance, I have a friend who is pulling a 22’ travel trailer. With weight distribution hitch, it rides and drives fine, albeit a hog on gas. The 400 will be a walk in the park.

    @andyboy: I loved my GC. Mine was a summit, so it had ac for my butt cheeks😂. The overland(as does the summit) has air bags and 3 stage ride height. Nice feature on forest roads, as well as keeping the tail from sagging or the nose pulling up when loaded. 

    I would have have kept it, if I hadn’t driven it so much!

    @4ncar Thanks for the glowing report! I have buyers remorse already and I haven't even bought it. Seems like a good choice. This one has cooled seats as well which is mostly why my wife is in love with it and she hasn't even seen it, let alone sat in it.

    @andyboy, we have had CJ, TJ, Grand Cherokee Unlimited, JKU, and now 2018 Colorado DuraMax. I think you will be very happy with the Overland, a most capable Jeep.

    @andyboy good news! We’re you able to keep the rubi, or did it get traded...

    Well, I had a trade figure in mind and thought if they didn't come close, I"d keep the Rubicon. They actually offered more. Maybe I should have set my sights higher....but it's going to be gone. sigh.....
