Towing a Viper question

[Chuck 98 RT/10]

This is a dumb question, but has anyone trailered a Viper or any other car, with a S-10 4 cylinder? Eventually I'll get a V8 but for now all I have is the S-10. Will it work?

Chuck,

Gutzy move, especially on interstates where you will be blown around by semi trucks passing you going up to 30 mph faster. It's do able but if you aren't towing much I suggest you rent a truck from a local dealer or rental agency for the weekend or day of your needs.

That's a pretty short wheel base and not much power. I wouldn't try it. I used to pully mine with a 5.4L Expedition (pulls 8000 lb) and it was fine with an open trailer. When I bought an enclosed trailer, I had to move up to an Excursion.
