Default Tow cars and trailers


2.5L Subaru Outback. It handled better than towing it
with a slightly older (97) Chevy Tahoe 5.7L


While we're comparing tow vehicles, I currently have a Standard class
glider, with a typical fiberglass tube trailer. Tows fine up to as
fast as I want to go behind my '95 Dodge Dakote 4-cyl pickup. But
sometime in the future, that will wear out or I'll get tired of the
standard shift, and it'll be replaced. 2 vehicles interest me: the
Honda Ridgeline pickup, and the Subaru Baja (either at least 3 years
old, I'm done with new vehicles). Does anyone have any experience
with either of these for towing gliders?

tia,
Ed
