Re: [RC] right vehicle for towing - Lynn KinskyOn Jan 28, 2009, at 11:04 AM, Diane Trefethen wrote: Here's a video of a car trying to pull a trailer up a hill and the results. Thank goodness it wasn't a loaded horse trailer!The car in the video is a mini-car and it is pulling an RV. So the video doesn't prove that a big car with a strong frame can't pull a horse trailer. All it shows is that a mini-car can't haul an RV. The whole system has to be considered. My '67 Camaro had a larger engine than the Chevy half ton truck I used to pull my two horse trailer, so theoretically the Camaro could have pulled better . . . except the Camaro's bumper wasn't attached to the frame.
