  Richard, 
  Ford Falcon Wagon on LPG is a good solution! The tanks go under the rear load 
area with the spare tyre on right hand side. Use the company designed  tow 
hitch  Cheap to run and easier to drive than a 4wd.  

  you didn't say how much money you wanted to spend????

    Hi,

    We are new to Oz and are about to purchase a family car - which will need a 
tow bar suitable to tow a single seat glider trailer (glider yet to be 
purchased).  

    Any recommendations for good tow vehicles and gotchas to be aware of?

    What weight does the car need to be able to tow all up for a single seater 
+ trailer? 

    What down force on the ball hitch should it be capable of taking?

    We don't necessarily want to buy a massive vehicle as it will for the most 
part be a family run around. We might purchase a large 4WD at later date to tow 
a caravan or other larger trailers.

    I have read with interest the looooong trailer debate so information from 
there does not need to be reprised.

    Thanks for any help,

    Regards Richard
