Treat the Falcon Problem

I USE my 2004 BA Falcon to tow my 1300kg caravan, but after all I have read and my experience towing with it, I don't feel confident any more. Could you help me with some inexpensive and economical suggestions for an alternative tow vehicle?

I'M NOT sure what your experience has been with the Falcon, but before you dump it and spend money on a replacement, I'd try to fix the issues that concern you. The main problem with the Falcon when towing is the automatic transmission. I'd install an external transmission oil cooler, which will ensure the auto doesn't overheat and will remove the chance of having a problem with the factory oil cooler in the radiator.
