Newbe question, Mercury Mountaineer max trailer size

I'm doing my homework, I have a 2007 Mountaineer, V8, I'm looking at trailers in the 4,000/4,500 pound class, any comments, I now live in CT. and am heading south. Ford dealer says no problem, RV deal...

Actually I gave directly relevant experience and measurement.....that is more than opinion.


Not at all. There is good experience, bad experience, and lucky experience. Doing something that one should not, and being lucky with no breakdowns (yet) or other problems can delude one into thinking that the TV is capable of more that what the engineers that designed it think.

That doesn't mean that the next person that attempts it will fare as well.

You either believe in following the numbers or you don't.
I do not have a problem with that... I do have a problem with someone recommending that a newbie ignore the numbers.
