You know, I was among the many who at one time questioned the actual validity of an acceleration test such as this. What did this have to do with towing??
Well, poor old rural me forgot about the big city folks, or perhaps more accurately, those traveling through the bigger cities.
I-494 in the Twin Cities is a prime example of the need for such acceleration. Those who have traveled there, along with other major cities, know they have lights on the on-ramps.
So one waits at the light and when it goes green, you'd better have some acceleration to blend into the heavy traffic on that route.
So indeed it does apply to towing, cause there are places you GOTTA get that load moving in a hurry.
