[VAC] what will I need to pull it?
Hey everyone-This is my first try on this list group. My name is Jamie and
I will be buying 1970 airstream safari on Thursday! I am very excited as I
have been looking for one in my neighborhood for some time and finally found
one in good shape and affordable. However, I guess I don't have all the
details figured out yet and thankfully the guy I'm buying it from is ok with
allowing me to leave it on his land for at least the next month while I work
on the details. The most important of which is what type of vehicle I will
need to pull it. I currently own a 1999 Grand Vitara (v6 4x4). It will tow
1700lbs according to the owner's manual. I assume I will need a stronger
vehicle, but how much do I need? I want to be able to travel cross country
in the summer months, but I also want to have a vehicle I can use around
town comfortably. Does anyone know how much my airstream weighs? And does
anyone have any suggestions for a vehicle?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Jamie
