What if we had these for the Yaris?
I found this on YouTube after reading the post 'Why I got out of a Yaris' posted by RacerFreakxxx.

VW Beetle & Trailor: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lW9tL...eature=related

I don't know why the link didn't change to be clickable so you may have to copy and paste it into a new window/tab.

I've seen some other small trailers for small cars but this one is both an eerily attractive idea for a small car and yet fills me with uncertainty over how it would perform with the Yaris if it were available.

S.R.

But our manual says it can't tow any weight. Unless you're in Canada. For some reason they can haul up to 200lbs.

Canadian Drivers contain more hot air, hotter gasses are lighter weight. this allows for 200lb towing capacity ?

Some here have towed... I have contemplated losing the rear seat, maybe some other things to lighten her up, and buying a little rascal.

yea I was going to mention that. I'm pretty sure the roofs of our yari are only slightly thicker than aluminum foil
