There should be NO problem whatsoever in towing it, as you indicated its STOPPING IT that's most important. I have towed cars n trucks to Florida several years with a Class C Chevy One Ton Van style RV with a 454 V8 no problems and my buddy does the same with his V10 Ford. I use a Brake Buddy auxiliary braking system in my towed vehicle which applies the towed vehicles brakes as needed. Its adjustable for the weight you are towing and sensitivity etc and you can sure feel it and know its working plus I have the LED indicator in the RV which shows when the brakes are applied. Good working lights and the braking system are essential. Ive NEVER had any heating problems when towing and I run an auxiliary transmission cooler and a heavy duty radiator just in case, although towing a truck or car isnt really all that much of a load. This year (plus 2 other years) I towed my car down and it towed my golf cart but next tear Im going back to towing the pickup with the golf cart in its bed so its not so longgggggggggg and its even legal that way lol. I only have to make 2 gas stops at Chattanooga TN and Valdosta Georgia and theres plenty of room at Flying J's or Wal Marts etc to pull in and gas up and spend the night for free. State City and County Police have watched and passed me and NEVER said a word, but regardless this is may LAST year to double tow, just too dern longggggggggg.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'.
