أخطاء شائعة يجب تجنبها

  • Confusing engine power with towing capacity (power alone insufficient)
  • Not including trailer weight in payload calculations

أسئلة شائعة

Why shouldn't I exceed towing capacity?

Overloading causes frame stress, brake failure, transmission overheating, and dangerous handling.

Do hitches increase towing capacity?

No; hitch connects to frame limits; capacity determined by vehicle design, not hitch.
