Hi Cathy,

It concerns me that so many people are wanting to pull trailers with marginal 
tow vehicles.

I'm a fulltimer, I've been towing my 25' trailer on I-75 for two days and I'm 
thankful I'm pulling with a big, heavy long wheelbase F250.  When the big 
rigs blow by me at 70-85 miles an hour I can only imagine what would happen if I 
had a little SUV.

Towing a trailer is inherently dangerous.  Friends of mine just had their 
fifth wheel, pulled by a medium duty Freightliner (!!!!), go on its side in 
Kentucky. They were very experienced, having been fulltime for 9 years. 

If I'm looking for a tow vehicle that last thing I'd be worrying about is 
trying to get the smallest one I could find.  When looking for a tow vehicle, 
bigger is better.....  

Please, get a real tow vehicle.  A heavy older car or a long wheelbase pick 
up. If you're worried about gas prices, get a used truck and spend the money 
you saved on fuel.
