Towing a 5x8 trailer 2000 miles in a 2010 hyundai elantra

No one has mentioned the big disadvantage of towing with FWD in here yet, and that’s the way the weight gets distributed towards the back, raising the front end slightly. You’re losing traction on the wheels that power and move the vehicle, making it more difficult to maneuver the car

Hello all,
Thank you very much for your comments and suggestions. I ended up returning the trailer (I am still fighting with Uhaul to get my money back since they claimed that my car could tow way more than it is able to safely. Thank you for helping me save my car from destruction!!

Congratulation Andrew for being a hazard on the road and really don’t see why opening a 4 year old thread to promote unsafe practice was necessary.

That would be an incredibly stupid thing to do. Especially when you can rent a pickup from Uhaul or a big box home store for less than 100 bucks.
