Default Towing update...2200 mile road trip pulling a 1300# trailer.

After doing a few shorter 4-800 mile trips pulling our tent trailer, we did a much longer one. This year we spent 9 nights camping in our tent trailer. Our far north destination was Bend, OR....which was everything people said it was. Drove mostly backcountry roads, except where there wasn't any other option. The xB towed the tent trailer flawlessly. Sorry, no pictures of the car and trailer, but see my older thread for that.
We also had two mt bikes up top, space case full of bags, and two kids bikes in the back.

Awesome pics! I'll be seeing these sights after next week, when I hit Memphis and then The Great Smoky Mountains...

Btw, cute kids!
