Required for a job. Cannot recall what it was now. Had to tow a dump-truck too and that must have been a couple of tons. Trailer was 750kg on its own. It did it but it had to work hard on the hills around here.

Not towed anything with mine for years. Thought about getting a trailer and mini digger going out on my own but if yours struggled perhaps it’s not a wise idea

It will handle mini-digger. There are quite a few sizes before you get to the full-size ones.

Guessing a 3T with trailer and ramps plus buckets be too much.

Seen a 5th wheeler today, on a pickup though

V8 would tug it but I think the oil burner would struggle on the hills. The biggest sod is having to stop to switch between high and low range.
