Anybody have firsthand experience with this vehicle and more importantly (to me, not the wife who mainly wants comfy seats and Nav system and rear DVD for Boy®) have you towed with it? I'm talking about medium-duty towing i.e. an open steel trailer with a 914, and the back of the vehicle stuffed w/ crap. I fully realize a big enclosed trailer ain't gonna happen with a relatively light/SWB vehicle like this.
Apparently a 5L V10 diesel is coming, which should be pretty sweet in terms of torque and fuel economy. A pickemup truck is not an option as whatever we get will be wifey's daily driver and will need to haul kids, clients, roadtrip gear, etc. "inside". But whatever we get also needs to be able to do tow and/or roadtrip duty 15-20X a year, safely, reliably and efficiently. |
