[VAC] Re: Toyota towing
Needed to add:
The pulling power isn't the only factor to consider. The lighter the tow
vehicle the more influence the load will have on it. Wind, passing vehicles,
and stopping distance are all effected by the weight of the tow vehicle.
Much instability can be eliminated by properly adjusting the balance of the
load (toung weight). Stopping distance can be improved by properly adjusting
the trailer brakes.
