Less than 30 miles. And its due to the explorers rolling in the 90s. Firestone sent out faulty tires that would come apart and cause explorers to have life ending crashes. And people tried to sue Uhaul over it so its now the only car they have ever banned. I'm not sure why my little Forester is allowed to tow a car with them compared to it but rules are rules. And I'll invest in some trailer brakes.
Forester is allowed because they don't have a warning sticker regarding roll-over hazards which is why the lawsuit was filed in the first place. The Ford Explorer was notorious for roll-overs even without pulling a trailer.
