Update on Towing with Prius

"Markerfaiire", William?

 

another Harbor freight trailer. Not my pic

 

Bob, what was the tongue weight on this? Seems like a lot.

 

I could lift it.

I drove my Gen2 like a truck. Loading. Towing. Hills. Pedal-to-metal. I once asked my wife and son to disembark ("Jump out! Now!") so that I could make it to the top of a hill in San Francisco, that I didn't want to back down. (I didn't trust the brakes.)
YMMV

But the Gen3 has much smaller windings, if I recall correctly.
Anyone have specs comparing the different generations of ICE & MGs (Specifications, not Speculations.)

 

For the strongest, best-built hitch I've seen:
Torklift Central | About Us
I'd call and ask them about plans for the hitch you want. They're not cheap, but they're sometimes looking for a car they can use, to build a new hitch for market...

I own the x7192 hitch.

 

Just fill it with regular, run a line to the fuel system, and wire up that pump,and you've got the perfect vehicle for those who REALLY hate stopping while on cross-country trips!

 

Hi I was wondering which Firestone Coil-Rite Air Bag Helper kit is compatible with my car. I have a 2019 Prius Prime Premium

Found this one on the SDTruckSprings website: 2010-2017 Toyota Prius - Firestone "Coil-Rite" Air Bag Helper Springs (NO-DRILL) [REAR] (Model: 4136)

And this one on Amazon:
Firestone ( 4100 Coil-Rite Air Helper Spring Kit Front 63-99 P30 (W237604100)

However, I have been having trouble trying to determine which kit is compatible with my car. Thanks!

 

Simbaboy if your trailer rear gate is removable, you might want to take it off. It's weight and resistance. I get better mpg with mine off.

The good thing about harbor freight trailers is that they are light. I prefer to just buy them used to avoid the assembly labor and get a better price. I love the trailer in a bag, and if you have limited storage they are great for that. Also good to get through tolls with it in your car when your'e bike empty. I see this pics with the 4x4 but i also recommend the 4x8. More versatility to haul more.

 

Love the little trailer. I converted my Pri into a very small camper and have been going out across the US the past 2 years. It works decent for one person but I have thought about doing something similar with a small trailer but I don't want to give up the great mileage and the on demand AC. Life is a series of trade off's.

 

No issues trailering my Lil Trailer together with a dual sport motorcycle.
Just came back from the motorcycle mechanic.
