Stock toy hauler for Jeep

Is there a stock 5th wheel toy hauler that can handle a Jeep?

Decided to go with a 2007 Weekend Warrior LE3305. It has a cargo rating of 6k LBS. So, it will hold my Jeep, some gas and water. I have seen a lot of people on the Internet with this set up hauling Jeeps and have not heard any complaints. Apparently you just have to ensure that you load the Jeep far enough forward to achieve the proper tongue weight. Height with the drop down beds in the back is also an issue. Might have to air down the 33's.

Something else to consider is the strength of the rear door (as a ramp).

I recall a few discussions on RV.net about whether or not the door would handle the weight of a Jeep.

Very true... My understanding is 3k per axle. I might have to get some ramps just for the sake of making myself feel better about it. I know I will also have to focus on GVWR for the trailer. It has a 150 gallon water tank and a fuel station. With a 4k lbs Jeep, 1200lbs of water and a bunch of other stuff, I could go over real quick.

I finally got the Weekend Warrior. The Jeep fits perfectly without airing down. On a side note, I am pulling with a 2011 Chevy 2500HD with a short bed. I put on a Pullrite Superglide since the trailer is 102" wide. Two words, Friggen Nice! I have six inches of clearance at the closest point during a turn. It also pulls really nice.
