was also a little leary of dragging home that Scout with just a towbar & very little towing experience... i barely knew it was back there. ********* pulled like a team of oxen, i kept her at 65 - 70 the whole trip without skipping a beat (& passed a few 'strokes at that). the dual straight pipes weren't as bad as i was expecting, the kicker? judging by the 1/4 tank of fuel i have left & the trip odometer, i think i got better than my normal 17-18mpg
