Oh sick discovered a camper my car can actually tow! Got a turbo diesel with nearly 2 tonnes of towing capacity, but if I stand on the towball thats almost too much weight for it. Not exactly the best design in the world.
Ask for a test drive to the local weigh bridge before committing....just to make sure
unfortunately not that simple. Its the actual weight at the towball itself that's my limiting factor. A little baby camper trailer will almost always be under a tonn. And there isnt a great way to measure tow ball limit annoyingly.
Repeat after me - Hayman Reese, Hayman Reese - best towing rigs in the goddamn world. Seriously, they're bolt on towing rigs that can be fitted to practically anything and will tow the Titanic up Mt Kosciusko. If you plan to go off road, or have variable loads, they're the best. I had an H frame one put on my Ford 250 for towing horses and NEVER regretted it. Made light work of towing a 3 horse trailer all over Vic and NSW back in the day. Fully loaded too. And I found I was de-bogging other people's rigs out of muddy ground on a fairly regular basis. Mind you, I did have a low torque gearbox added on too which helped.

If I ever see an old vinyl from the soviet bloc I am sure to snap it up.
Today I was not disappointed. I got a 1968 Supraphon recording of Beethoven 1st and 8th symphonies from Czechoslovakia.
