Towing - Who has towed what?
Just thought I'd give a little update. So far I've towed the race car and super heavy steel trailer about 4 or 5 times, with an extended 7 hour tow with no incident. It does seem as though the LR3 does have to work pretty hard at times, and I wish the brakes were a little beefier, but all in...- strikerflo

Good to actually get some feedback going the other way. I was kind of afraid that I might be pushing my luck with an enclosed trailer, even a relatively lightweight one. While many of my events are in the midwest (no real elevation changes at all) there will be a few out in California and out...- strikerflo

Towing - Who has towed what?
Thanks so much for the responses, guys! Very encouraging, indeed. I'll probably just stick with a u-haul auto trailer for this season...racing budget got tightened down quite a bit from last year and can't afford to buy a trailer. Since I won't do more than 6-8 events this year, renting one...- strikerflo

Towing - Who has towed what?
I ask because I'm hoping that my LR3 could serve as a decent tow rig, and I just wanted to get others' opinions and experiences. I've come across a few experiences via some searching I've done on this site, but I just wanted to get a better idea. Additionally, does anyone feel as though I...- strikerflo

Wow...that's utterly surprising, but very encouraging. Would I at least need to switch out the fuse seeing as how there's probably a change between what's required for the HID vs halogens? I know I could always wire up a kit, but nothing works (and is DOT legal) like OEM. I'm very impressed...- strikerflo

Excellent! Thanks a ton for the help. I've already found a few good threads on the brake controller. What's my best bet for locating a set of the bi-xenon housings? I'm sure I could wait until a decent deal pops up on eBay, but are there any other places that may carry them from time to...- strikerflo

Greetings! I picked up an '05 LR3 SE today to be used as a 2nd vehicle/tow rig/poor weather vehicle and so far I'd probably say that this is the best vehicle I've driven to date. On the way back from the dealership, I was caught in some very heavy snow, followed by a sharp drop in...- strikerflo
