The Onion

I agree about trailers, but one full of sand will weigh too much for most American SUVs/CUVs let alone sedans.

I’m pretty sure cars and non trucks are vastly underrated for towing in the US though, since the same cars in Europe often have 50%+ towing capacities. The excuse is always that our highway speeds are higher, but I suspect maintaining high truck sales has more to do with it.
