[IRPT]

You have trailer hitch max weight and vehicle mx towing weight.

The PT is rated for a Class I. The Class I hitch has a 2,000 WT Carrying, 200 Max Tongue weight. The owners manual states max towing weight of 1000 lbs, 100 lbs tounge weight (including the weight of the trailer) regardless of the size of your hitch. Some peeps also say you should include the weight of the passengers and luggage. Let's not forget this is a 3000 lb car with a 4 cyl engine.

You should also take in consideration the braking capibilites and take-off tourque/gearing of your vehicle plus the fact that it is front wheel drive. Too heavy of a tongue weight will take weight off of the front wheels. If you have an automatic,tranny cooling is another factor.

I would stay within the limits listed in the owners manual.

I've heard it is not recommended for the Turbo to tow anything, could someone with a Turbo comment on this?
