Sitting in the caravan considering our next caravan and putting various combinations in the cc outfit matching. Was surprised by some cars getting a warning flag for being low on power with caravans well below 85%. 40bhp/tonne seems to be the minimum. We're currently at 54. Any thoughts on this and what what sort of ratio makes for easy towing?
