I was leaving Lubbock last week towing my travel trailer with my big Dodge dually and pulled up behind a medium sized Airstream, probably 28' to 30' long, at a traffic light. I couldn't see the towing vehicle.
After we passed through a one lane construction zone the highway widened to two lanes each direction so I eased out into the left lane and started around the Airstream. I was mildly surprised to observe the tow vehicle was a VW Touareg with Michigan plates.
I would have guessed the Airstream was a little too heavy for the Touareg but it seemed to be towing it fine. I think the Touareg was towing at about 55 to 60 mph.
