I'd imagine that it would be able to tow it on the flat, but it would be a
struggle to pull off from traffic lights and would be working hard to
maintain highway speeds.  Hills....I'd be carefull.  I can imagine my diesel
vanagon towing something heavy like this up a hill, slowing down, then
having the weight of the trailer pulling it back down the hill again!  I'd
be careful.  I think the vanagon is only rated to pull 1000 lbs max.  Keep
us posted!

Subject: Anyone tow a car with their van?

Hi all.
As a person who is always noodling around ideas, I'm currently curious if
anyone tows a whole car with their Vanagon?  Aside from the lack of power,
how well does a Vanagon tow something like a Miata (i.e. reasonably light)?
What kind of hitch are you using?  Can it handle towing the car and also
being full of cargo?  Thanks!

Chris
