Thanks!
I'd change my earlier post, but intend to leave it as is- proof positive that sometimes minds can be changed when facts are presented along with opinions.
Go for it, O.P., and please (continue to!) ignore my earlier ignorant post.
No worries at all Francesca, my Kia has a 1650 lb tow rating. I am confident that its rating should not be exceeded. I think most cars your advice would be accurate. However with a panther car it's a totally different story.
Thanks!

Funny you should mention a Kia- I myself tow with a first-gen Sportage, so despised by most that when I took it in for brake controller wiring the nice guy at the RV place looked at it blankly and (very politely) asked "What do you think you're going to tow with this thing?"
Little did he know that beneath that stupid-name-wussy-looks exterior lurked a (modified) ladder frame, not to mention other features ordinarily only found on pickups...very much in the tradition of the O.P.'s car.
The rest is history!
