Instead of considering a pop-up camper, if you own a Ford Focus and want to go camping, explore options like:
* Rooftop tents: These attach to your car's roof rack and are much lighter than a pop-up camper.
* Small, lightweight travel trailers: Even these might exceed the Focus' capacity, so carefully check the car's owner's manual and the trailer's weight.
* Camping in established campgrounds with facilities: This eliminates the need to tow anything.
Check your Ford Focus owner's manual for the *maximum towing capacity*. Even if a small pop-up camper technically falls within this limit (which is unlikely), other factors like the car's age, condition, and the road conditions can significantly impact your ability to tow safely. Safety should always be your top priority.
