My rich-kid's setup ... classy 4wd and luxury trailer sailer :lol:

Comes in at about the 300kg mark all up. Tows really nicely - you know it's on the back, but doesn't affect handling, braking or acceleration much on bitumen. Needs some decent sized tyres on the trailer for sand work but too much hassle in fitting them and will make launching more difficult.

checked the owners manual and it has no specs in there

Braked and unbraked trailers will have different ratings
