First time towing

Just thought I'd throw this out there as there are a lot of towing questions.
I have a 2014 JKU - Polar Edition (3.73's) with max tow package.
1.75 inch lift with 33's and rear airbags in the springs set at 28psi for towing.
Boat and rig weigh approx 2000 - 2250lbs total.
With the boat hooked up and 28 psi in the bags - Jeep is same height as without boat - no sag.
Ride was great, steering perfect - no twitches or bad manners over any bumps, under braking or on corners on the highway. Cruising at 70mph or 115kph with cruise on - boat may as well have not been there - the only difference is the tranny gearing down more frequently for hills.
Just thought I'd share - those of you who are not trying to pull huge trailers or loads should not stress about it - the Jeep does a great job.
Have a great weekend - I will be fishing the lower Niagara River and Niagara Bar!
