Cruze Towing
After loading my truck up with camping gear, and wishing I could fit it in my cruze, realized technically I could tow with the cruze.
Does anyone have experience with the lightweight utility trailers from HF or TSC? Car is limited to 1000lb, but my gear is bulky vs heavy. |
Search garagejournal.com, the HF trailer gets a lot of praise there. Tons of tips on how to make small improvements to the trailer as well
|
On a side note, the HF trailers are available now again after being taken off the shelves for over a year I think it was. There was an issue with the tires not meeting DOT standards or something like that. But that has since been corrected and fixed.

Jeeps love them

I have the HF 1750lb. capacity trailer. I tow it to Maine every year for vacation. I installed 2x4 stake pockets from McMaster and built removable sides. It tows well at highway speeds. I also bought the spare tire mount and tire. My only complaint is the powder coating. It starts out red but after a few years, it turns a very manly pink!:lol:

This is good stuff, may seriously look into a hitch and trailer setup
Although may start with the gear rack option first |
I'd lean more towards a trailer.
You + wife + 2 dogs + 10k in camping equip = squatted cruze |
