Right tow vehicle?

I have a 2009 Honda Pilot 4wd and am looking to buy a used 2002 Bambi 19'. The Honda is rated to tow 4500 lbs. and the Bambi weighs 3900 lbs. dry. Is this a reasonable combination or am I expecting too much from the Honda?

Good day to ya....

Airstreams tow really well compared to most box type trailers. Many have had success with the Pilots towing small and mid sized Airstreams.

There are many historical posts here re towing with Pilots. You should be concentrating on the hitch/receiver and set up to get the most out of the combination.
