wow...scary...I can see that there is a market for "featherweights" and I'm not citing the brand here..just the concept of making a trailer as light as possible for the smaller SUV/trucks to pull.
when we first got our Nash , i was driving a 2004 chevy 1500 327 gas...it leveled nicely on the hitch and it pulled fine, but give it evern a moderate hill to climb on the highway and we were grabbing gears and revving pretty high....the trailer would kind of command the truck...with our 3500 deisel...I set the cruise on 65 and it doesn't even downshift on hills...love it!
but to the point...smaller pull cars/trucks... i can see why the market selling point is lighter weight trailers...i'm just glad I have been bale to add enough to be able to bring my lil red honda along for the fun.
