By "hard time" what do you mean? Your van should pull that little thing easily. Does the van need a tuneup and seem underpowered or was the trailer fishtailing or overloaded?
I have the pedal all the way down on slight hills and I cant get it over 55. My van has always seemed peppy even when pulling the other smaller trailers. I KNOW it should be able to pull this trailer, and I am not hearing straining sounds or it isnt downshifting like right before I dropped the transmission. Oh yes, I had a complete tuneup before I left, I had it checked over again by another well rated garage. I guess I am just not willing to face real hills if it cant make it up a slight incline. It does seem under powered but there is no fishtailing.
