Toad question
Kerry:

We tow a 2004 Suzuki XL-7 (weight of 3700 lbs. I believe) and we don't notice
it at all behind our 82 FC. We have the 3208 na engine with no retarder although
I use a Brakebuddy on the Suzuki. We towed it last fall from Toronto to Texas
and back with no problems.

Best wishes.

I haven't pulled a toad with the Bird. I just set up a 1996 Sidekick
as a toad. Just under 3000lbs. How much of a difference will I
notice pulling a toad of this size? I've got a retarder so I don't
think the weight of the toad even without brakes will make a huge
difference in braking ability given the relative weights of the two
vehicles. How much will I notice the toad when hill climbing?
