I collect and Haul cars all over the US. This is what I have done. I have an enclosed 28 ft car trailer. I used the best in towing components. Draw tite 1200 lbs equalizer hitch set up. 1200 lb spring bars. (this brand is the one with the highest rating you can get in a Hitch). Twin sway controls. Electronic brake control. Trailer is 10,000 lb rating I ordered upgrade 8 lug 6500 lb axles. Brakes on all fours I tow with a highly modified 1970 W200 Powerwagon with a 502 stroked 440. Special brakes, sway bars, built automatic, etc. It tows very nice and very fast. I have had it over 90 mph with a 4500 lb car inside. mostly cruise around 75 mph and have done this for over 100,000 miles with no trouble.
