add-on options for Wagoneer L Series II

[rastaman]

New owner of a Wagoneer L Series II here! Trying to unpack features. Think we got the Heavy Duty Tow Package (or off-road?), Premium Group, Rear Seat Group, and even Rear Seat Displays, which was missing from website. Question is adding features like automatic high beams or the heads-up display. Is that possible after purchase? Also, confirming the max tow weight of 10,000 lbs - is that including the vehicle weight (GVW) or extra capacity? Thanks for the Wagoneer newbie tips!

To find out if your Jeep has the Heavy Duty Tow Package, look for a trailer brake controller, which is usually not addable later. If you order a new vehicle, you can customize it, but it may take longer and cost more. If you buy a used vehicle, you may get a discount, but it is more difficult to add features. If your vehicle can tow 10klbs, you can't load it to its maximum weight and still tow 10klbs. You must calculate the total weight of your vehicle.

I agree with @Silver.Surfer, you can't load it to its maximum weight. It's not just about how much my car can tow, but also how much weight is pushing down on the hitch. If that weight is too much, I could be in trouble. I might lose control, have a hard time stopping, and even damage my car. A special hitch can help, but it won't fix things if I'm way over the limit.

Honestly, towing anything heavier than my car is built for is a bad idea. It will really stress out my car's transmission, making it overheat. My brakes will wear out super fast, my tires will get messed up, and I could even damage the frame of my car. It's just not worth the risk.
