Re: GS towing?

Sorry for what happened at your last thread Regalfriend but the best thing to do is follow the Regal Owner's Manual at Chapter 4. To cut to the chase, the trailer and its contents should not exceed 1000 lbs (1/2 ton). I have followed that guideline for the last two years with no problems. And I am not looking for any either.

I would hate to see you blow your engine or transmission on such a long haul as a 2500 mile trip, have a blow out (tires are relevant in the equation), suffer structural damage to your Regal or lose the load.

IMO you would be better off renting a U-Haul truck of the proper size and towing the Regal to your destination. Good luck!
