I'd say the straps are way too light - you want the working load of one end to handle the weight of the car - i.e. two rear straps are all that hold it in place during stopping (home depot has j-hooks rated at 3k lbs). T-hooks allow for a more solid connection, although j might work. I tow an open with my f150 - handles it fine, although would like a bit more grunt up hills. I am using a weight distributing hitch though, which makes a noticable difference. It isn't mandatory though, the car and trailer are below the capacity of the vechicle. Electronic brake controller is mandatory - love my Prodigy.

LOL about #9 - had the same experience!
