Eh, I'd say safely 2000 sounds right. In my 2001 cavalier with 2.0litre and 5speed, tiny car, I towed a 3200lb trailer with no problems. Just takes a bit of common sense. And I did it from Mississippi coast to northern Texas, so it wasn't just down the street.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, scotch in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA !!!!!
