A typical car will have a towing capacity of around 1500 lbs. A minivan will get you 2500-3000. A properly equiped truck will get you 4000-5000.

(These numbers are appoximate to give a general idea of course.)

As well, I wouldn't want to tow a 2400 lb trailer with a vehicle rated for 2500 lbs through the mountains. I would use a truck with at least 4000 lbs capactiy.
