How far are you going? the max tranny isn't really equipped for it, but its a possibility.

I've transported a heavy *** Rover on a car trailer with my old 2.5litre Cefiro seem to do alright.. wouldn't want to do it a lot though, thats a lot of weight to stop with and stuff

Let me know when you're towing so I won't be on the road, stopping distance leaves alot to be desired. Check stickies I think it says something about towing capacity for the max.

it might be able to tow but i would be more worried about the brakes, seems like the stock maxima brakes have a long stopping distance, imagine that with a 2200 lb load.
