Re: Anyone towing a trailer?
We live in the USA, where every "rating" of anything is 1/5 of what the actual limit is.

Well not ALL toy haulers exceed the tow rating. Takes a little time doing research and going to the RV dealer.
No ,I never said my hauler was light. Empty it is under the limits printed by the manufacture. Yes, loaded with all my stuff it is over the printed limit. I didnt post talking about how much the H2 would pull. Will it pull the hauler? HELL YES ,it will pull it 80+MPH thru the W.V. hills. Are there other vehicles better at towing? HELL YES.
No ,I have not had any problems. Iam an HVAC mechanic. Everything will eventually break or wear out. If you work it harder it will wear out faster. When it breaks I will fix it. Just like all the other equipment I fix every day.
I was just posting my trailer not looking for a fight.

Just sold my 2003 686 port, polish head, cam, Trinity exhaust and extended swingarm
