You'd have to make the usual accommodations, but it should be quite do-able=
.=C2=A0 Keep an eye on the temp gauge though, as the engine
will be working harder and generating more heat.
One of our local club members pulled a small camping trailer to VTR 2001 in=
Breckenridge CO (roughly 1000 miles each way plus over a
mile difference in altitude) with his TR4. I forget what he said it weighed=
, but I'm sure it was more than 700 pounds.=C2=A0 But he was
keeping the speed down (maybe 55 or so) to avoid overheating.
