So are you asking what size truck you need to pull the grey wolf? Or are you asking what is the largest vehicle you can tow behind it.

A quick look you are at the top of 1/2 ton capacity. The fact it’s a toy hauler and when the toy is in the back it will remove weight from the hitch. Would I tow that trailer with my last two 1/2 tons all day. Now if I was looking to buy a truck or upgrade I would be honest I would probably go with a 3/4 ton

Now to answer your question the way I read it. You could weld a hitch to a semi and tow the trailer. That’s the largest I can think of just not practical.

I think the OP means television because it's in lower case.
Usually, on RV forums, TV is used for tow vehicle and tv for television.
But I could be wrong.

Nope very good observation, I noticed only 4 post and my mind went straight to vehicle thinking television never crossed my mind

Thank you for the reply. I am sorry for the confusion as I am new to posting on here. I am looking at the size of television to buy or the largest I can buy that isn't to heavy to cause problems. I am also new to RVing.

Unfortunately nothing in the Library, will tell the OP how big a tv they can fit in their Cherokee Grey Wolf, which is what the OP is asking.

I don’t know if yours is the same but we put a 39” from Best Buy in ours.

Be careful about how big you go. There is a general range that's ideal for each tv size. To big a tv for how far you are sitting from it will actually hurt the picture quality. I bought a 32" for the bedroom and ended up taking it back and getting a smaller tv for this exact reason.

So measure the opening that the TV needs to fit in and see what your hypothetical maximum is. Here is some information regarding seating distance from tv's for you.

Finding the Right Distance for Your TV

How far to sit from your TV depends on both its size and the type of screen you have. If your TV is a traditional 1080p HDTV unit, the TV size distance ratio is between around 1.5 and 2.5 times the diagonal width of the screen. This means that if you have:

A 40’’ TV– You should sit between 5 and 8.5 feet away from the screen.
A 43’’ TV– You should sit between 5.5 and 9 feet away from the screen.
A 50’’ TV– You should sit between 6.5 and 10.5 feet away from the screen.
A 55’’ TV– You should sit between 7 and 11.5 feet away from the screen.
A 60’’ TV– You should sit between 7.5 and 12.5 feet away from the screen.
A 65’’ TV– You should sit between 8 and 13.5 feet away from the screen.
A 70’’ TV– You should sit between 9 and 14.5 feet away from the screen.
A 75’’ TV– You should sit between 9.5 and 15.5 feet away from the screen.
An 80’’ TV– You should sit between 10 and 16.5 feet away from the screen.
An 85’’ TV– You should sit between 10.5 and 17.5 feet away from the screen.

Compared to 1080p HDTVs, you can watch the more advanced 4K ULTRA HD TVs from a smaller distance without straining your eyes or seeing pixels. The ideal TV viewing distance 4K Ultra HD TVs is between about 1 and 1.5 times the diagonal width of the screen, which works out to the following distances:

A 40’’ TV– You should sit between 3.5 and 5 feet away from the screen.
A 43’’ TV– You should sit between 3.5 and 5.5 feet away from the screen.
A 50’’ TV– You should sit between 4 and 6.5 feet away from the screen.
A 55’’ TV– You should sit between 4.5 and 7 feet away from the screen.
A 60’’ TV– You should sit between 5 and 7.5 feet away from the screen.
A 65’’ TV– You should sit between 5.5 and 8 feet away from the screen.
A 70’’ TV– You should sit between 6 and 9 feet away from the screen.
A 75’’ TV– You should sit between 6.5 and 9.5 feet away from the screen.
An 80’’ TV– You should sit between 6.5 and 10 feet away from the screen.
An 85’’ TV– You should sit between 7 and 10.5 feet away from the screen.
