Understanding How Your Vehicle and Caravan Work Together
by Greg Willis
A plain-English guide to understanding how your vehicle and caravan work together once they are connected. Before You Tow helps caravanners make better decisions around weight, balance, ratings, and towing behaviour — so they can travel with more confidence and less guesswork.
Before You Tow is written for caravan owners who want to better understand what is really happening between their vehicle and caravan once they are connected.
Rather than focusing only on rules, numbers, or towing jargon, this book explains the towing combination as one working system. It looks at how weight, tow ball mass, axle loads, vehicle ratings, caravan loading, suspension, tyres, braking, and towing aids all interact in the real world.
Written in plain English, Before You Tow helps readers understand why a setup can look fine on paper but feel different on the road. It explains how small changes in loading, balance, or setup can affect steering, braking, stability, comfort, and confidence.
This is not a technical manual or a replacement for professional advice. It is a practical guide to help everyday caravanners ask better questions, make better decisions, and approach towing with a clearer understanding of how their vehicle and caravan work together.
Whether you are new to caravanning, upgrading your setup, or simply wanting to understand your current combination better, Before You Tow will help you tow with more awareness, less guesswork, and greater confidence.
Helping caravan owners understand towing, weights, and the way their vehicle and van work together.
Greg Willis writes from real-world experience working with vehicle and caravan owners who want to better understand towing, weights, and the way their setup behaves in practice. His work is shaped by hands-on weighing, practical client education, and a calm, plain-English approach to a subject that is often made more complicated than it needs to be. Through his books, he aims to give readers clearer understanding, greater confidence, and a better foundation for making safer towing decisions.
