If I may chime in, trailers are a peculiar thing as far as handling goes, too much tongue weight, and you have a handling issue due to possibly overloading the rear of the car, too little tongue weight, and the trailer takes on a life of it's own. Either situation equates to nothing other than DEATH ON THE HIGHWAYS!!!

So I imagine, being sensible folks, if this trailer is set up correctly, it will have the least impact possible to the drivability of the tow vehicle/trailer combination. Also, when you have anything in tow, it does affect the handling of the vehicle no matter what. So be careful.
