I'm in Michigan. Will post some pictures when it'* not covered in snow. =( IT'* ALMOST MAY ALREADY!

The car has about 140k on it, mostly highway, and was very well maintained.

We own a home and well, you can't own a home without a way to get stuff from the hardware store. I'm just looking at most a 6 foot open trailor for bringing home the occasional yard project supplies and some plywood, etc... Sucks when you have to pass on the clearance snow blowers or lawn furniture cause getting it home is too big a pain in the arse.

I tow with an SSEi....but not very often, and short trips only. My trailer weighs about 800 lbs dry (that'* a guess), but I do have a tranny cooler added (in addition to the stocker) and a trans temp GAUGE. If you're towing in the summer with ANY car like this, add the gauge, not just the cooler.
