      Have you ever towed anything? Towing a trailer of that size and weight with a car like that, even if legal, is sketchy as fuck. Especially on hills or mountains. Where I am from its legal to take that picture, it’s not legal to get on the road. For good reason. A capable truck is much safer for that purpose, for everyone.

        Ahahaha, tell me you’ve never left your country, probably not even your fucking state.

        Yeah, all of Europe doesn’t know how to tow, and is „sketchy as fuck“. 🤡

        This is perfectly legal and safe.

        You know what’s sketchy as fuck? The US, which has 3 times more road deaths per capita than the EU.

        Now go back to your wankpanzer, please.

      Doing that in the states would be illegal. Our payload and towing capacity are calculated differently which vastly drops the ammount you are legally allowed to carry. For example a jeep wrangler in Europe has a towing capacity of 5000Lb (2300Kg) but the same exact jeep in the states can only tow 3500Lb (1600kg)

        Yes, because people in the US cannot be trusted to drive at safe speeds while the EU regulates 80/100 km/h with a trailer.

          Speeds are a per state basis however a good chunk of them do in fact have separate speed limits for vehicles with trailers. For example, California limits vehicles with three or more axles to 55 MPH (88kph).
