Default Another towing question

The problem will be in finding a frame mount hitch that can handle something
close to enough weight. If you can find one then if the car will pull it up
the ramp you can do it. As long as you're just in the yard going a few
miles an hour.

I have a 23' Chapperalle. and double axle trailer (total weight est 5000
pounds.) I'd like to tow it up a ramp and into a storage yard then launch
once/year. Ramp is about 20% and maybe 20' long, the yard is less than 100
yards away.

My vehicle is a Chevy Malibu with a wheezy 4, and the trailer has an
electric winch.

Think if I stayed in Low, and went slow I could do it?
