    Help please I don't have a clue and no owners manual.

    I also posted this at the other group...
    in case this gets buried here and no replies.


    I have a 4 cyl 2001 SUV.

    Can I tow anything with this little baby?

    If so what should I know?

    I'm looking at this little trailer..

    Length from hitch coupler to rear bumper: 15 ft
    Width: 78 inches
    Road Height: 52 inches
    Axle Weight: 900 lbs
    Hitch Weight: 95 lbs
    UVW(Unload Vehicle Weight): 998 lbs
    GVWR(Gross Vehicle Weight Rating): 2000 lbs
    NCC(Net Carrying Capacity): 1002 lbs

    Thank you!!

    Did Honda make a model called an "SUV"? No. You'll have to be clearer than
    that.

    Also, automatic transmission or manual?

    $-secrets.com:



    A trailer up to 1,000 lbs. Tongue weight can't be more than 10% of the
    trailer's weight.

    Total gross weight of the entire assembly, vehicle and trailer together,
    must not be any more than 4,165 lbs.

    From your Owner's Manual:
