Hi all,
I see quite a few GU towing vans (and horse floats, and boats). Have a 2000 GU 4.2 turbo manual, the car is rated to tow 3500kg. Great. But I have noticed a sticker inside rear door that says a maximum down-weight on tow hitch is 200kg. What? A lot of vans around would be around 2500 to 3000kg. Rule of thumb suggest 10% ballweight. That's 250-300kg.
Are people ignoring this? Removing the sticker?
Anyone towing these sort of weights like to comment on their ball-weight? I'd really like to know.
Thanks
