As Dan said ‘In addition to being to heavy from the git-go, the frontal area of the TT, will exceed the car's maximum limit’. The frontal area of that trailer is about 71 square feet. Many smaller vehicles ( it Expeditions, 150 trucks etc) have a trailer frontal limit from 48 -63 square ft. Pulling a flat surface that size, even within weight limits, becomes a nightmare. We did it once, never again. That was with a Windstar van pulling a small hybrid trailer. Gas mileage dropped to 4 mpg and couldn’t maintain speed limit on flat highways. We were with the weight limits, but over on the frontal area.
