In reply to why tow with a Prius: Well you sometimes gotta make do with what you have and its pretty common. I see lots of people with small campers and boats so much even that toyota finally came out with a 1600lb towing package on the gen 4's! In reply to safety: I haven't seen those signs so I guess not. All we have is the 70 mph limit signs, and we don't even have the 65 mph truck signs anymore that I used to see from what I've seen. Closest thing is the stay right signs. Anyways the thought here was less heat going into the bearings by reducing rev's and the load rating on the passenger cars would be high 900s vs 500s for the crap walmart brand trailer tires. Most people run into trailer issues by not maintaining their axles and running them too hot. Im not sure how to judge my weight here but I have a boat that weighs 180 pounds, a motor that weighs 65, and a gas tank that weighs 40 pounds so we are relatively light here. I may have overstated the weigh here as I move it around exremely easy up and down inclines with my body. Also my tires are brand new and my trailer is always stored in my garage with everything else. Max psi used etc...
I've always been under the assumption that trailer tires dry rot long before they wear out unless your running the thing like cross state every day.
I will for sure work on Aero now that I think about. I was just thinking in my head about how much further my car rolled on lrr tires vs non lrr tires when i swapped (about 20% further).
