Yes, just drive a little slower. Also be sure your transmission has clean fluid and is full. I would not tow anymore then about 3000lbs.
A Toyota Tercel is not designed to pull a truck on a trailer. This vehicle has a very low tow capacity at about 800 to 1200 pounds depending on the model.
Power and gearing.
I have a 2003 xterra 4 x 4 and I pull a 4,300 coachman travel trailer with it. It will pull the trailer provided that you have a weight equalizing hitch and trailer brakes. You have to pull the trailer with the automatic transmission out of over drive.
You'll need a truck that's heavy enough to pull the trailer, equipped with a trailer ball hitch to attach the trailer. You also need to make sure the horse trailer has operating turn signal and brake lights.
You need to read the owners manual! The Toyota manual states the Prius is not designed to pull a trailer.
That Usually depends on the strength of the truck/engine. A higher horsepower and you should be able to pull more.
Check your Toyota owner"s manual, if it show you yes , then do it!
Depends on the GVW of the trailer and the Gross Combined Weight Rating of the truck and trailer.
No. There's a certain weight limit that a truck can pull without putting stress on the transmission. It's usually in the owner's manual of your truck that you will find it. A trailer is a heavy thing to pull, and even heavier when you have animals in it. You're better off with a larger pick-up that has the weight specifications to be able to pull a livestock trailer. This is really important if you have large farm animals like cattle or horses that you have to truck around.
A rigid is what is known as a "straight truck" in the US. It's a medium or heavy duty truck which does not pull a trailer.
They can pull the kingpin latch on the fifth wheel - that is all they can do. They cannot physically move the trailer.
If the GVW of the trailer exceeds the GVW of the truck, no.
