My next tank will be disastrous, it is garden work time and it means I need to haul some supplies, our hills are rather steep here and I need 3rd gear to get up without flooring the car, when I have trailer full of stuff.

Empty trailer is like if I would have handbrake on all the time, full trailer is so heavy that car is really struggling with it, 60kph is ok, but trying to do 80kph is almost impossible at uphills.

Naturally I did put tire pressures to 44psi on trailer too.
