Just because a vehicle CAN do something, doesn't mean it SHOULD.

Also, I don't know about the pulling power of this vehicle on hills. We are talking about a 4 cylinder engine tweeked for fuel economy not power. I'd be nervous trying to take a 1500LB trailer up a steep incline. I'd recommend finding a steep hill and doing a test drive. See how it feels accelerating up the incline without a trailer and then decide if you want to try the same with a trailer.
