Towing a small pop up with a CRV

Nope. Read the tow capacities listed for the SAME vehicle with the SAME power train sold outside the US, read the specs for yourself. The campers I saw were traveling along at about 60mph or so. I can't imagine the 10% rule changes outside North America but these weren't Casitas, the were 20 foot tandem axle TTs. I guess pictures are in order next time I'm there.

Traveling 1-2 hours or 8-9 hours makes no difference if you can't safely tow something.

I love pics... I lived there for years, there are 20 ft tandems just as you said.. but there are lots and lots of single axle small caravans.

The diesel versions of these cars are not available here (some exceptions), while their petrol counterparts are available on both sides of the pond in a lot of cases. There is a huge tow capacity disparity between the European versions and the NA versions. I believe that tongue weight capacity has a lot to do with it.

Thanks!
