![[image] Since many people seem to believe you can't tow with cars, here's roughly what dutch people end up doing on vacation.](https://feddit.de/pictrs/image/ea1db421-ccea-4e3d-af37-aec9b3e62de4.jpeg){kind=link}
Easy Google search shows this car should not be pulling a travel trailer.
Motorcycle trailer, sure. But basically best case scenario this trailer is at it’s tow capacity, which does not give much wiggle room for failure.
But most likely it’s quite past the tow capacity. It’s tow capacity is 2000kg/4400lbs. A travel trailer’s dry weight is already close to that. If it was a pop up camper that’d be one thing, but this is a full dead ass travel trailer. It’s probably around 5000lbs, and who knows what’s stuffed in the back. This is a safety issue.
Quick edit: this is not to say you need to own an F150 for the one time a year you do this, but maybe rental?
It’s also possible to have cars modified to increase towing capacity. I’m not saying this particular car has had that done. But you do see a lot of Dutch towing trailers in Germany. I’ve never heard of anything bad happening, other than them clogging the fucking motorways with their slow ass jalopies.
Idk someone else in this thread said that it’s kinda a rule in the EU not to buy a used Dutch car with a trailer hitch
