More stupid advertising:

2000 Sunline Solaris Camper Special Edition 27ft - eBay (item 170610816116 end time Mar-09-11 17:35:59 PST)

Oh yes, a minivan should have no problem pulling a 2570 (and SE too!)...

I'd rather take a 286SR with a half ton before doing this!

Nice camper, but I agree they should of left the mini van comment out.... That did not help the creditability factor.

Maybe, they were the same dealership that sold the 5th wheel to this guy....."Sure you can tow it with that! People do it all the time!"

trailer weighs right at 5000 lbs, so really a minivan can pull this tralier without a problem.
Sounds like a PHD (Pile it Higher and Deeper)

Sadly, people belive things like that.
