I have a 2021 Honda CRV, trying to find light trailer. Have gotten mixed answers to tongue weight and trailer weight I can tow. Can you help?? Email is down, please respond to text. Thanks
Hello Tommie. 1500 pound towing capacity and tongue weight is usually 10-15% of total loaded weight, i.e.150 pounds.
This has surprised me as this is pretty new to me. However, it seems very interesting. I am looking forward to further digging down this thing. I am hopeful to write my blog on this issue.
