I took the '07 on a 400 mile round trip drive on Sunday to pick up a "new" bike, and as with the last time I towed a motorcycle, it seems to juuuuuust be lacking in power. In OD, you can do 60 without much issue, but anything above that it will downshift, accelerate, then slooooowly drop in speed. Plenty of power with the OD off, but then the motor's hollerin' pretty good and the fuel economy is even worse. The weight of the trailer/bike isn't too much, but the wind resistance from this cube is kicking the Lib's ass.
Should I try to squeeze some more power out of the motor? Cold air? Muffler? It's the wife's Jeep, so I don't want to do anything crazy, and we're running on one income, so I don't want to kill the fuel economy either.
ETA: I'm running a 12" extension, so I do need to beef up the ass end a little too.
Thanks, guys.
