Guys
I have searched but couldn't find any thing on it may be iam using the wrong search words but. I want to know what a safe tow weight is for my Deli. I have a 24 foot twin axel caravan weighs in at 1400Kg unlaiden my ford ranger pulled it no problems. Do you think or know if my Deli will deal with this okay.

Regards
Eddie Smile

Work on 85% of the unladen weight of the vehicle...(caravan club recomend this up to 100% for 'experienced' towers)

so at 1400kg your about at 75% so your safe enough...

i pull a 20' single axel with a max weight of 1360 with absoletly no issues...i think ace said his was 1800kg.....(pretty sure thats a twin as well)...

My Deli tows 1800kg's of twin axle van with no problems, so you shouldn't have any difficulty
