Toyota Rav 4. Honda Pilot. Nissan Murano. All smaller tow vehicles. And all capable of towing a 30-foot TrailManor without breathing hard.
In fact, the 30-foot TrailManor is well under the 3,500 pound towing limit of many of the most popular vehicles in the nation. And any properly equipped mini-van, SUV, or crossover can tow a TrailManor."

They say that some minimal vehicles can tow it. They just don't say that they can go camping with it fully loaded, a few passengers, couple hundred pounds of cargo, the dog and a full tank of gas.
The reality is, you can pull a TM with just about anything. The question is, is it safe or even legal to tow a TM and all that goes with it when you go camping???? Towing is a lot more about a vehicle being able to stop a fully loaded rig (in a panic stop or under any conditions) than it is about being able to pull it.
To answer your question.....IMHO TM is being a bit disingenuous in their advertising. I'm just waiting for the day that someone gets hurt or killed (I hope that day never comes) and names them in a law suit over it.
