I think they look okay, most 4x4 p/u's have about the right hitch height so they ride level. Tows real well at 60-65 mph. A1's don't have surge brakes so I would'nt tow it with something small or stopping might be an issue. Do a google seach for images, there's a lot of photos of trucks and these trailers on the web that will give you an idea how they look attached to a pickup.

Baios,

You are my hero when it comes to towing with a mutt. Maybe I could be the US representative for your happy cow transport service! :D

Ziebart is a system for under coating and adding rust prevention and was franchised in the USA. They became popular in the 1960s in parts of the US- mainly central northern and north eastern US where salt is used on the roads to melt ice and snow...and rust out our vehicles. According to their website they now have about 500 locations in the US and some International ones.
