Subject:      Help! Info on towing a small trailer?

Help- I checked the archives for info on towing a small trailer with a bus, and came up empty... Anyone know of any other places to check? Owner's manual was some help on the matter, btw. It states that it *can* be done, and gives max trailer weights (roughly 1,500 lbs without additional braking). I'm well aware that I won't be getting anywhere real quick with the added weight, but I've gotta do it -- I'm moving, and Uhaul rates for a moving truck, from Seattle to Buena Vista, Colorado, are in the $1,200 range when gas is figured in. So, I want to buy a used 4'x 8' trailer and do it myself. Lotsa mountain passes aside, given enough time to take my time, it must be possible. Again, Help? Advice? Anyone who's towed a trailer with a bus before? Thank you very much in advance!
