Default Truck vs Car as a tow vehicle

Uhh- How about EVERY TIME you are towing a glider trailer?


The only problem I have had towing was with a Land Rover
discovery ,my daughter jack-knifed it with a DG500 behind.

I think the hard tyres and springs bounced it into trouble.

I now tow with a Mercedes C class estate car and think the softer
ride helps.

Sorry in the British makes don't make sense in the USA.
