Jim - unless you're pulling a very light car, the weight with a "real car"
would be closer to 5000# - most M-Bs are in the mid 3000# and up range!

Can anyone tell me in real life terms what would be a 10,000 , 8,000
and
6,000 lbs tow?
My car trailer is 1800#, figure 3500# for a car on it.
I don't envision towing anything more than a UHAUL trailer every now
and
then and even more rare, an inoperable car on the back of a trailer.
Then I think you'll be fine.
