Mercedes Towing Capabilities
The Mercedes Class B's seem to have very low horsepower. Are they measured the same as US pickup trucks? As far as towing capability, they seem that they couldn't get out of their own way. Opinio...

You pretty much said it yourself.
I still tow with a 200HP diesel 4:10 3/4 ton pickup. On the flats it's great but in the mountains it's an embarrassment. On a medium to big mountain grade I'm at round 30 MPH towing a 7K TT.
BTW I passed one of those Benz motor homes the other day coming up to the race track. He was about 25 to 30 MPH climbing a mountain that I would be about 30 MPH on.
It is what it is.
