Towing a trailer, anyone?

[fmicle]

Hi,

My little Yaris has been a good work horse over the past 2 years; we've gone on camping trips, ski trips, had chains on it and it worked great. The thing is, my wife likes to cook really good while camping, so we usually bring a lot of stuff :-) Until now, I dealt with that by folding the rear seat. But two months ago we had a baby, so there will be even more stuff to carry in the future, plus I can't fold the rear seat anymore.

So, I was looking at renting the small Sport Trailer from U-Haul to deal with the reduced cargo space. I can't wait to see how it looks like! :-)

My question is, does anyone have any experience towing with the Yaris? Any thoughts, concerns, limitations, etc? I believe I would also have to install an towing harness to have power to the trailer for lighting and stuff, right?

Any feedback would be appreciated.
