Brief question.  Is there something a modeler has to do to their vehicle in order to make it tow objects?

 

I am trying to get a vehicle to tow a trailer.  It is an add-on vehicle, therefor I had to make the CarVariations and Vehicle entries myself.

I gave the vehicle both flags for attaching trailers (highway and city) and I added the trailer names as items under <trailers> in the same place.

This vehicle still won't pick up trailers.

 

What is the trick to adding trailer capabilities to a vehicle?
