I want to tow a light weight travel trailer. Do not own one to give specs. Want to buy one.

Make sure your trailer hitch is big enought for the trailer tounge weight and total weight.
Make sure your transmission cooler is rated big enough.
And remember no towing in overdrrive as stated in your owners manual.
Check with the place you by your trailer and they should help you out with the specs on it and check things out for you.
And always watch your tempture gauge when towing.
And a transmission tempt gauge is a good idea when towing.
Your engine should have the power to pull it but.
Stock radiators are only rated at 85-90% of engine cooling.
If you add 10-15 % more total weight you are running at max on your raidator cooling capacity.
If you tow anything very heavy you may need a bigger raidiator.
Good luck
