   Thanks, Leo! Have you done any mods like a transmission cooler or beefed up brakes and suspension? Your van has more power than ours too, so I still have doubts about towing with our Sedona.

	We tow with a Dodge Grand Caravan with a pentastar engine, puts out 283 horsepower. We have towed through the mountains of Vermont, New Hampshire and some in Pennsylvania. We have towed From Vermont to the Florida keys and multiple times back and forth to North Carolina.We have had plenty of power on hills, interstate etc. We average 13 mpg around Vermont and New Hampshire and 14.5-16 once we get down to Massachusetts and below. We usually travel with 5 gallons of water in the tank and usually drive between 60-68 mph. I am quite happy with our vans performance.

	I'll try again. I don't own an Rpod, but I'm seriously considering buying one. My question is what do others use to tow it? We have a 2009 Kia Sedona minivan with a V-6 engine with 250 horsepower. Can we safely tow an Rpod with that vehicle without damaging the van? I don't want to buy another vehicle if I can avoid it.
