We picked up our Outback Terrain 250TRS and 3 days later traveled ~630 miles to the Ozarks on our 1st trip with the trailer. I will admit I was a bit apprehensive at first, however, my 2012 Durango R/T did very well. Granted, we averaged 9 mpg (I'm good with that) and my speed was generally under the speed limit in MO (70MPH in MO), I did not feel we were unsafe. As a matter of fact, on HWY 65 outside Springfield I had the opportunity to attempt a hard brake and emergency maneuver to avoid a bunch of rubberneck fools as we crested a substantial hill. I looked at my wife and said, "Wow, other than those idiots watching a lady pulling her kids out of a car, I am very happy with that experience!"

Stats: Husband, wife, 2 kids in second row, 1 kid in the 3rd row. I had a dry camper with the exception of clothes and a couple bikes in the front storage area.

It should also be noted the Equalizer 10K Hitch was excellent!
