towing a caravan- not a disco?

[NavyDiver]

Just following some odd links and came on an article about tow vehicles for caravans. Chuckled at the D3 or D4 pictured when I noticed land rover was not in the mix just in the picture:D Caravan towing capacity: The cars you can rely on | Without A Hitch (http://withoutahitch.com.au/caravan/caravan-towing-capacity-cars-can-rely/)

A sad shake of the head towards the ignorant, uninformed.

Every day there are dozens of caravans towed through Goulburn and some of the combinations you see are truly scary.

Its common to see old Falcons towing well over 20' vans with WDH's wound up to maximum to try and keep the car from tipping over backwards. Crazy stuff and that site put the Falcon down as the number one tug. .... :eek:

Itlooks to be from ALKO.
The same mob that I emailed after getting Land Rover drilled hubs with AF studs, telling them Land Rover had had metric studs since about 1977.

They replied telling me that they were not in the motor industry but only the caravan industry.
So now some PR person thinks they know enough to comment on tugs.
