Subaru Ascent /16 Scamp

Hello all I have a towing question I was asked today by a family member. We have a 2016 Scamp 16' camper that we were thinking about selling. A family member asked the question if their Ascent would be able to tow it. I have a Ford Ranger that we use and it works just fine. These people are new to camping/towing and I was wondering if it is a good fit. Thanks in advance JohnB

Feel free to follow up

I don't have much to add to what I posted in the fall, but you or your buyer are welcome to follow up with questions.  My general advice would be to take things conservatively at first.  Take a trip or two with minimal gear in the Scamp to get a baseline "feel" for how it tows, then see how it behaves with more gear onboard.  The Ascent is more than adequate, but it's not like towing with a much heavier full size pickup.
