Do you have the 6 speed or 8 speed transmission?
What do you tow and what has been your experience?
 
I’ve towed a Bambi Airstream Travel trailer and a motorcycle trailer with my LX570. It has a 6 speed transmission. No issues except for the obvious hit to fuel economy.

i tow a 25 ft. pontoon houseboat. less aerodynamic than a parachute.
i have the 2008 with the 6 speed. it struggled with 35s until i regeared with 4.30 gears.
its better, but still struggles on steep inclines out by the lake.

i made the front porch tilt down for better air flow and got my MPG up to 7.5!!!
yeah, its thirsty and the 20ish gallon tank becomes more obvious with the low efficiency.

brakes are good, and the platform is super stable, just horrible fuel economy.

i also bought a set of clearview towing mirrors from australia, just because my trailer/boat is wide and hard to see around.
