Default Another towing question

What the heck, give it try. Worst case is it won't work and you'll be out
the ccost of te hitch.... unless you can put it to use towing a small
utility trailer full of leaves.

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?


I would look for a friend with a pick up truck or rent a pickup truck
twice a year.
