To add my 2 cents worth. I just towed 2 crosleys this weekend from New York to CT. I used a Honda Element towing a 5 ft X 10 Ft single axle trailer. The first...
Towing American made Crosleys with a Honda just doesn't seem correct-- -LOL- ... New York to CT. I used a Honda Element towing a 5 ft X 10 Ft single axle...
