A friend of mine drives a Sorento. No way is it up to towing a high sided travel trailer. A popup, maybe...
Yeah, I read that. But the trailer weighs 1940 lbs.. I plan to haul it empty. What am I missing? And what do you mean high sided?
High sided as in you're pulling a sail down the road. Aerodynamic resistance is the main reason TTs are harder to pull than an equivalent weight boat or flat trailer. With less capable vehicles like small/midsize SUVs this becomes an issue. Some manufacturers even have maximum frontal area limits for trailers in the towing specs.
