Re: How to drive loaded 99 Accord LX with a trailer?
travel the speed limit , do not lug the engine - . and before you go make
sure you change the oil first. i'd recommend using mobil 1 synthetic 5w-30 or 10w-30 or castrol syntec 0w-30 must be made in germany one. towing is tough on an engine and you need the best oil you can get. have a safe trip.
