So I'm looking at buying a car hauler/trailer to pull my mini to events and such. I know that a 7k will be more than enough to pull the mini and gear as the mini only weighs about 2500 lbs (I think). However, I am looking at getting an 80 some time in the next couple of years to do some mild "family wheeling". My daughter is 6 months now so hopefully she will be able to go by the time she is 3. Anyway, I would like to have the ability to haul the 80 if necessary. Is there any chance the 7k could haul the 80? I have read that they are about 4800-5000 lb stock and upwards of 6500 with bumpers, tires, etc.
The trailer: Flat steel car hauler with dove tail, 7k
The tower: 11 Tundra with 10k lb tow package
The towee: Mini for now, maybe 80 later
The question: Will it tow the 80?
Any help from trailer towing gurus is much appreciated!
