Towing a camper?
Did you ever take a camper on vacation with your F3x? Care to share how it went and if you did it again?
EDIT: if you decided against doing it, why? Thanks!

How big of a camper? In Europe it’s quite common.

Sort of related, I tow an ATV behind mine regularly, unbraked. Total weight is maybe around 1000 lbs fully fueled. No trouble at all and the car feels capable of towing a good bit more power wise. I've read they can be rated up to 3500 lbs.

According to this website the F30 should be able to tow 3,500 lbs if braked. https://www.autotrader.com.au/bmw/32...-capacity/2015 I have to say, though, that seems awfully heavy, but the trailers in those photos aren’t small.
