Load-pulling components such as the engine, transaxle,
wheel assemblies,~dnd tires are forced to work harder
against the drag of the added weight. The engine is
required to operate at relatively higher speeds and under
greater loads, generating extra heat. What’s more, the
frailer adds considerably to wind resistance, increasing
the pulling requirements.
If
You Do Decide
To
Pull
A
Trailer
If
you do, here are some important points.
There are many different laws, including speed limit
restrictions, having to do with trailering. Make sure
your rig will be legal, not only where you live but
also where you’ll be driving. A good source for this
information can be state or provincial police.
0
Consider using
a
sway control.
You can ask a hitch dealer about sway controls.
,
Don’t tow a trailer at all during the first 1,000 miles
(1600
km)
your new vehicle is driven. Your engine,
axle or other parts could be damaged.
0
Then, during the first
500
miles (800
km)
that you
tow
a trailer, don’t drive over
50
mph (80 km/h) and
don’t make
starts
at full throttle. This helps your
engine and other parts of your vehicle wear in at the
heavier loads.
Obey speed limit restrictions when towing a trailer.
Don’t drive faster than the maximum posted speed
for trailers (or no more than
55
mph
(90
Km/h) to
save wear on your vehicle’s parts.
Three important considerations have to do with weight:
Weight
of
the Trailer
How heavy can a trailer safely be?
It should never weigh more than 1,000 pounds
(450
kg).
But even that can be too heavy.
It depends on how you plan to use your rig. For
example, speed, altitude, road grades, outside
temperature and how much your vehicle is used to pull a
trailer are all important. And, it can also depend on any
special equipment that you have on your vehicle.
You can ask your dealer for our trailering information or
advice, or-you can write us at Buick Motor Division,
