Towing Issues: towing, towing capacity, gross weight

Question
i have a 94 grand am v6, i want to tow a trailer with four small atv, with four people in car . do u think this car is up to that  task or am i asking a little too much ? do u know the towing capacity of this car ?

Answer
Peter,

I would strongly advise against doing this as it would put the car well over it's capacity.

The rated capacity for the 1995 model is 1,000 lbs gross weight.  As far as  can find, there is no rating for the 1994 which tend to have me believe that the manufacturer has listed 'not recommended for towing'.

Good luck,
