As mentioned, the short wheelbase of the 1009 is a MAJOR limiting factor as far as towing capacity. No matter how big the motor, how much it weighs, or how good the brakes are, I would still not tow any heavy loads with that short wheelbase. The only short vehicles capable of towing heavy loads...

Hey Doc that's a nice ride! You should enjoy toolin' around in that. I had to put some gorilla tape under my left foot to keep it from trying to push in the clutch. And I still occasionaly find myself reaching up with my right hand to find the shifter handle (instead of reaching down for the...
