3500kg trailer

Postby MinorMatt » Wed May 12, 2021 8:16 pm

Am I right in thinking that the mk8 350HD is the only 3500kg Transit with the capacity to tow a 3500kg trailer, or did any mk6/7 have this capacity?

I didn't realise the Mk8 can tow 3.5t for a long time the iveco was the only van that could tow that much, not aware of any others.
