Sorry, but as one who owns a 19' couple's model (22' 6" coupler to bumper) I wouldn't tow it with any V6 vehicle, other than an F150 Eco which is an entirely different animal and should be compared to competing V8 offerings such as my Silverado. Unless the trailer in question is particularly small / lightweight most V6 aspirated vehicles IMO just aren't sufficient for this task, regardless that some may choose to do it anyway. :R

Yup...need a TV with twice the tow capacity of the TT to tow it safely.:S
So-called "tow capacity" is a farce, the primary limitation with 1/2 ton and less is payload capacity, or more correctly lack thereof. Add to that less grunt under a V6 hood and the picture isn't pretty. :S :S
