Re: [VAL] 72 Globetrotter



Smaller vehicules are not recommended. You need a long wheelbase and a 
lowish center of gravity. Even a globetrotter is heavy enough to whip a 
small SUV all over the road, when bad things happen.  Also, you need 
more muscle in the transmission and maybe a cooler.

There are folks who get away with this small towing. Never have wrecks 
(yet) never even have white knuckles (yet). And almost any car 
dealership will tell you fairy stories about how much their things can 
tow. For your own safety and the safety of those on the road with you, 
don't wimp out on your tow vehicule.
