I have a 2017 Four Winds 31W. Its 32' and weighs 14600 fully loaded. But no water. I am looking for people that actually tow a 4 door jeep with the same size rv with close to the same weight.
How does it do towing it. Is it to heavy?

I did extensive research on 2017 Four Winds before buying mine. Your 2017 E450 chassis has a GVW of 14,500 and GCVW of 22,000. Your hitch should be rated to tow 8,000 lbs but only 500 lbs of tongue weight (insignificant when flat towing or dolly towing). You scaled a bit over the GVW but you have plenty leftover for towing (roughly 7400 lbs) The V10 and 6 speed transmission has plenty of power for towing. As mentioned it's used in far heavier Class A motorhomes just fine. You will want to get the auxiliary breaking installed for safety (and to be legal in most states).
I tow my car trailer and convertible behind my Four Winds just fine that was built on a substandard E350 chassis.
