Potential TT owner looking for advice

Another consideration is how much do you plan to carry in the tow vehicle? All seats filled? The new tow rating standards account for 150lbs for a driver and the same for 1 passenger. Any weight added to the vehicle above 300lbs will reduce your tow rating pound for pound.

Towing with a 4 cylinder engine with a CVT (Ascent) is not going to be fun in the mountains at any weight. My coworker tows an Rpod with a Kia Sorento. Lightly loaded with he and his son and he says it struggles to hold highway speeds in the flats.
