There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Just now saw this and followed the link to U-Haul. You need to be sure you have a "proper" tow vehicle to use the one they list now. It's over 3100 pounds. Not sure what the other Spyders weigh, but the RT models are just over 1100 pounds, for a total close to 4300 pounds behind the hitch.

I just checked the Owners Manual for my Honda Ridgeline truck. It's a 3.5L V6 with AWD, so nothing major in terms of power.

With 2 people in the truck it can tow up to 5,000 lbs (2,267 kg).
Maximum seating is 5, and with 5 people in the truck it can tow up to 4,500 lbs (2,041 kg).

That also assumes that each person has 17.6 lbs (8 kg) of cargo in the truck bed.
