Back in like 2002 or thereabouts, I had a couple friends towing two horses with a Ford Explorer (a mid-size American SUV a bit bigger...

Many years ago, I was a groom/peon at a dressage yard in upstate NY, and I was doing 6am to 6pm kind of days. Utterly knackering. And...

Yes, the Outlander could tow the single. Tow weight is 1500 and kerb weight is like 1800. OH currently intrigued by the suggestion...

The other spanner in the works is that the government is going to start taxing EV owners by mileage, which gives OH less incentive to...

Try not to stress on canter, Beryl will be 7 this year and it has only really fully clicked so its 'easy' in the last 6 months or so. I...

Where? We’ve been on their website and seen one 403 that’s kind of above current trailer budget. That is the only used trailer on their...

The OPS yeti is certified to tow 2.1T not 1550kg so you are not comparing like with like here. The irony is that if anyone saw the OP...

If your Yeti is half as good at towing as the diesel 4x4 2015 Skoda Octavia Scout estate car that we have it’ll be rock solid at towing...

But is the vehicle underpowered if you’re under it’s stated tie limit? The topography around us isn’t that tricky unless you want it to...

I did think of that but I feel it’s a lot to ask of people, since they wouldn’t be able to drive their car for as long as you’re faffing...
