Not really....he loves it...I mis-spoke it's a 34' Airstream.
Not something I would do...but he's a "frostback" from the Great White North.:gasp

My only concerns would be the transmission staying cool and having sufficient material for hitch attatchment... If those things are kept in check then I say there would be little to no trouble...

I have a friend just lost 2nd rearend. I would put synthetic lube in it even if i didn't tow.

We tow pretty "heavy" so the Burb is set up with all synthetics, engine, diffs, TC case and tranny.
Towing the GS is not a problem at all.

I can't imagine it'd be a problem. If I can pull my boat with a Trans Am, that car should do just dandy.

I have a 300 Hemi and will hitch it up next month. Dealer said no problem at all. There rated to 3500lbs trailer weight. Our hulls on a Tandem are around 2500. They make a hiden hitch that acually is hiden!! You can have a hole cut in the bottom of the rear valance with a plug so you dont see anything. Then just pop the plug throw on the hitch and hook up. Thats what Im doing. Cost installed is 500 bucks tax in for that one. Theres a good forum called 300z that is very active with lots of tottaly adicted members and mechanics that help ya with any problems you might have just like hear. This ones a good one also. http://www.300cforums.com/

the magnum and the 300 both have 4 wheel disks i would think? and both would have bigger and better brakes than my tacoma and it pulls and stops my 002 fine. and i dont even have trailer brakes

Whipper's picture shows the 425 HP SRT8. That would be my ideal tow vehicle.

I went with the Magnum RT as it will get twice the fuel mileage my lifted megacab will get. The SRT fuel mileage is quite a bit worse. Less money for boat gas

I hope you have snow tires and a short commute. My commute is long, so I'm sticking with my Miata for DD use.
