Tow with any car... yah, maybe completely empty. I loaded one of those up twice already and hauled it 450 miles with our dakota and it was having a super hard time hauling a 5x8 UHAUL trailer full of stuff. Then again I'd put money on it that we exceeded the weight limit of the trailer

I load up a uhaul trailer (car trailer) with my SRT last summer and hauled it through the mountains of AK pretty easily.. I got roughly 14mpg doing it too
V8 05 Dakota though

he's "hauling ass" in his uhaul. ha...ha....ha.....................
I hope he didn't make any sudden stops, cause I bet that trailer goes flying in the back of his car.

I pulled one of those from Denver to Chicago in a Honda Civic. Any sudden stops would have been a disaster, and the trailer weighed about a ton more than the car, but we made it, and then promptly traded the car in. Surprisingly, it held 70 in the mountains and 80 near sea level. That's one of the many things I'll put on my list of things to never do again.

Yup, V6 Dak 2WD
It'll haul it but I swear we overloaded it both times
Going downhill it was alright, but when I'd hit some of uphill spots getting into the mountians... ugh, slow as hell
