sure it can, but thats not the limit........ on flat ground it can do way more........

I am thinking that for trailer needs I will use an open grate type that most home centers sell.

I might have to set up a hook up meet, I have to go to AL in a few weeks and am planning on driving. Not sure yet if the tail will come off first or not. if it does I might a strap on tail for the trip, similar to the one my old neighbor built for his Prius. That will solve many issues. when I need a car that looks good I could fold up the tail. when on long drives I can put it out. I would loose storage space but no more leaking when it rains or pulling in exhaust fumes.

Ideas on making a foldable tail?
