Well how much does the van weigh... so what would ten percent be.. I guess
it would be wise to get the bigger brakes and wheels... and then... what
size car could you carry across the country...

the trailer might be out of the question, too much weight... so maybe just
tow a small stick, like a porsche 924... would that be alright??? someone
told me its easier to tow a manual than an automatic...

and hey, you could then write off the miles on both vehilces couldn't you???
