Towing a trailer, anyone?

Here I am at the campground, got a site with electricity this time and they also have wifi, so I can post some pictures. 88 miles, one way, tomorrow we're driving back.

I must say I'm impressed, this configuration was easier to drive than I expected. The car handles just fine and drove most of the uphill sections of our trip in 5th gear at 55-60 mph. I think I will be using this trailer for many more trips to come.

And now for some UHAUL product placement. The Sport Trailer weighs about 550 lbs empty and costs $20 a day:







I got a thumbs up from a little girl riding in a passing Toyota Sequoia on the way here

That's a cute little set up. Towing 200 miles a few times a year probably wont hurt anything. But those are still hard miles and doing it every weekend would cause increased wear and tear on the Yaris.

By the way you have the best color Yaris Toyota makes.
