Be careful..... I am no towing expert, but I believe towing 100% of the weight of your towing vehicle can be very dangerous.

It is generally recommended you not exceed 50% of the weight of the towing vehicle, if the trailer is not equipped with brakes and not exceeding 85%, if the trailer has brakes. There are several other factors to consider. Check this link from the volvo club of England - http://www.volvoclub.org.uk/towing.htm.
