Towing 25' TT with Jetta TDI

OK, in our CG there is a rig consisting of an older Jetta TDI and a Coleman Caravan that looks like this web photo:


That cannot be within the car's capabilities, not to mention published limits, can it?
  • I doubt the TDI pulled that but it's true that European tow ratings are a lot higher than here. Case in point, our little smart car diesels are rated for zero towing on this side of the pond. In Europe 660 pounds and 60 pounds of tounge weight. More than adequate for out tent trailer and kayak. Tows with zero problem and stops on a dime.
