We were considering such a vehicle, but wanted to make sure it would
be able to make it up the Sierra (albeit slowly).

Long ago I pulled my TB Miley 2 horse, and 1100 lb TB gelding (3200 +) with
an 85 Jeep Cherokee (V6). Worked ok for around town, but downhill runs
weren't fun. Can you say 'fishtail'? Make sure the vehicle you pull with
can handle the weight of what you are pulling. Its more than just how fast
(or slow) you can get somewhere. <g> If you're hauling a Brenderup
(spelling?) and 1 horse you'd probably be fine.
