There is no max speed or time frame. That was one of the reasons I decided on the fiat. I s looking at the pop model, but got what I feel was a great deal on the sport. I like it so far, can't wait to tow it. I have the stay and play brake system on my Acadia but I'm going to go with something less with the fiat

That makes it an ideal toad... they must have designed it with 4 down in mind. Is it a front wheel drive?

Pretty solid. When you close the doors they sound solid not tinny

I don't have a vehicle yet for dragging behind my coach, so I will be curious what tow system and braking system you use when ever you get around to it. Or if any trimming of the front fascia is required.

(I just saw Blue Ox)

Just bought a new to us 2012 Terrain. Had Roadmaster baseplate stalled. Very nice. Do not even know it's there when disconnected. Having M&G brake system and break away unit installed tomorrow. Will be using it with my existing Ready Brute tow bar. Did not particularly care for the Ready Brake system that is built into the tow bar. We,ll see.....
