Is it safe to tow a trailer with my Accord?
 
I am moving across the country and I just purchased a 4dr V6 Accord. I
researched the costs of renting a Uhaul truck and towing my accord.
Wow, $3000 moving out and then back in 6 months (not including fuel).

Uhaul told me I can tow a 5' x 8' trailer with my 4 dr accord. The
trailer weighs 800 lbs and they say trailer plus cargo should not
exceed 2000 lbs. They say as long as I'm under 2000 lbs combined, I am
fine.


They recommended a automatic transmission cooler when I install a
hitch.


If I put a hitch and auto tranmission cooler on, I can rent a trailer
and be in the move $600 instead of over $3000.


Am I making a mistake putting a hitch and auto trans cooler and towing
a trailer across the country with my Accord?


Help!
