>Can I tow with an 82 Vanagon? I only want to tow a motorcycle on >trailer. Nick Yes. If you are careful, you can even stop it :-) Search the archives, there is a lot on towing. Personally, I pull about 900 lb tent trailer, van is loaded with me, three kids, more stuff than we need. It is an 81 air cooled with about 200K. I am not happy when pulling up extended long grades on the freeway, but mt roads don't give me too much trouble. Personally considering a second oil cooler for good luck. :) Leave LOTS of room for stopping. There are more idiots out there than you can count. Regards from Utah, John |
