Thanks for that am delighted to hear good feedback on the cars towing ability without warnings of potential HGF if you even think of exceeding 3000 revs downhill with a following wind! I agree the loading issue is an essential part of a stable rig (have caravanned previously) and have had a few hairy moments in the past!
On the basis of the good reports of the ZT's towing capabilities we have now booked sites in Devon and Cornwall for a 1300 mile round trip tow!
Cheers.
