I'm going back and forth on the idea of flat towing or getting a trailer. If I get a trailer I will need to get a tow a larger vehicle. I truly dislike driving most trucks and SUV's as daily drivers due to my commute over twisty mountain roads. My driveway is not too trailer freindly as well. However I have plenty of room for a trailer.
So I can flat tow with my Audi A4 or sell the Audi and get a sports ute or car with more towing capacity. Biggest problem I see is that all the vehicles I would consider driving have a maximum towing capacity of 3500 lbs. I think that might be cutting it close once I get trailer fully load with the 914, tools etc. Is anyone towing a 914 and trailer with smaller SUV like a BMW x3 or a bigger station wagon? Man this whole race car thing is a commitment! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) |

Yeah, but I sure wouldn't want to drive over 100 miles on public roads on Hoosiers. Especially if it rains.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)
