Trailers are wonderful things. My grandfather's trailer was so popular with family and neighbors he ended up buying a second so he could get a chance to use it!
My 2.2L Camry is rated for 1000lbs unbraked, the trailer is 500lbs. The load of wood in the picture below was probably well over 500, poor thing could hardly stop (the load was only going about 3 miles, and a lot of care was taken). Also not long after the photo was taken it was discovered that the car had been firing on 3 cylinders (getting all four back was like upgrading to a V8!), goes to show you really don't need a massive truck to tow a trailer, especially for hauling stuff around the corner when moving house.
Our Sonata is rated for 1500lbs unbraked, but unfortunately it doesn't have a tow hitch and it's hard to justify the cost when the other car already manages for the once or twice a year it's needed.
