Subaru Forester 2013: Towing a mid-sized caravan with 2.5 auto?

I have a 2013 Subaru Forester 2.5 auto. How will it go towing a medium-sized caravan a long distance?

It’s rated to tow up to 1500 kg if the caravan has brakes, so providing it weighs less than 1500 kg when fully loaded it should tow it without difficulty. But I would recommend that you have the automatic transmission serviced before you leave on your trip.
