Is it fast, no, but I'm not getting into any speed races pulling a trailer, and for a daily driver, I'm impressed with how stable it is towing long and/or heavy loads (it's actually MORE stable than my suburban in some situations). Anyone who tows a lot will agree that stability is significantly more important than speed or acceleration (or even tow capacity unless you are towing a big camper or horse trailer).
(oh yeah, and I'll be upgrading to the V8 if/when it ever comes out)
