I agree.
With what you are doing, even a downsize truck (toyota, s10, ranger, etc) would work better, and SAFER, as towing any Geo out there is going to excede the tow rating, brakes and suspension of a Metro.

Is saving / making money worth the safety risk (to you and EVERYONE on the road around you)?
