New trailer questions.... Help!
I've rented a car hauler from U-Haul twice. The full trailer kind where all four car wheels are on the trailer. Once I towed a 2005 Chevy Impala; the second time I towed a 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix. I towed the Impala about 300 miles through the hills of KY. The truck towed them great. I also have a 3,500 lb boat and 3,300 lb camper. The cars are the heaviest things I've towed. I'm sure others have towed much more.
I tow these a lot. The boat is 26' and is about 8500# on the trailer, the tractor is about 4000# as pictured (tires are loaded) and the car trailer is about 2100# empty. My Ecoboost has no issue pulling either of these.
I've towed a flatbed with my '67 F100 on it just fine from NY to WY. I use a weight distribution hitch to level out the truck. There is plenty of good trailering advice in that section of this forum. They helped me get mine set up right.
Here's a link to them helping get it all right:
