New Caravan

A supplementary transmission cooler

I tow a 535 Coromal pop top behind my Mits. Challenger V6 3.0 L Auto.
I assume yours is also a tandem, and as long as you distribute your load ok it should tow like a dream. I hadn't towed anything other than a box trailer for many years and was really surprised how well the Coromal tows.
Tips.
1. Fit a transmission cooler ($150 fitted)
2. Fit a weight distribution hitch
3. Don't tow in overdrive
4. Don't try to tow at the speed limit. 90kmh is fine.

Hi Dennis

I have learnt to take our time, when hooking the van up to the
truck, double check things, like safety chains, and the break a way
connection, and the load levelers, ect even check the lights,
the last thing you want is some body running up the rear end, or the van comming of the tow ball, and a good set of mirrors, so you can see what is behind the van. you will get the hang of it,
Good Luck.

I have a 2004 Coromal pop-top 535 tandem and it tows like a dream - I used to tow it off-bitumin with a Falcon and never had a difficult situation. Would recommend using load levelling gear, and still do even with the LC100, just for an extra safety measure.

Only thing i dont like are the rear indicator lights - other vehicles cant see them in all daylight situations and I nearly had a serious accident on my first trip. I am going to add to (not replace) the rear lights with a set of Led's.
