Folks,

I towed a 1200 pound tent trailer behind an 84 Ford crown victoria station wagon for a few years. The only problem I ever had with this was that I had to get a 3 row radiator installed to alleviate overheating on mountain roads.

On the subject of towing travel trailers with cars, I have been thinking about buying a Jaguar S type. While doing some research on these cars I discovered that the factory brochures listed the tow weight of both the V8 and V6 models as 4200 pounds and a tongue weight of 156. I even found a photo of one hooked up to a typical European "Caravan".

Tom
