Exactly my point! I own one I have a 16' trailer also and the only car its ever pulled was the kia because you can yank the ball from the hitch with its pull but good luck maintaining a lane or stopping it in a lane from 55 mph.
and that crazy thing rates it at 8500lbs . . . death on the hiway there!
