<< 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.

Actually, chances are, you'd be fine in a Brenderup with two horses. The
Brenderup truly is made for pulling behind just about anything due to it's
unique design, surge breaks, tongue weight (only 150lbs) and total overall
weight (my '89 weighs 1800lbs). I've pulled mine carrying two horses with
two different kinds of SUVs, a GMC Jimmy and a Mitusubishi Montero. Both did
an outstanding job. I only wish my 4 horse aluminum trailer pulled half as
securely as my good old Brenderup!
