[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1472310, member: 14668"] It has nothing to do with GVWR. The reason you cant tow a TP-6 with a P-12 is because of the distance between the rear wheels of the P-12 and the back bumper. If you installed a conventional frame-mounted hitch that came out underneath the back bumper, the geometry is such that it would drag on the ground and get high-centered every time the vehicle went up a driveway. My building has a couple of P-1000's with trailer hitches and they are constantly grinding on the ground, a longer P-12 would be even worse. My P-700 has a hitch and there are several steep driveways on my route where my hitch has chewed grooves into the concrete from decades of going up and down it. [/QUOTE]
