Default Towing with D24t equiped 7xx series??

Anyone here use their car to tow, if so how heavy? The manual says 3300lbs, which I was suprised as that seems pretty heavy. I'm trying to buy a trailer hitch so I can drag my flatbed trailer around from time to time, mostly just to go get it or if I need to haul something bulky but not heavy, rather than to use my gas guzzler truck. I was also thinking about doing a trailer brake controller just to help since it does have electric brakes. Any things to look out for towing with a 7 series I should look out for? I'm not a novice when it comes to driving with a trailer by any means, but I've never used a car to tow with. I know the engine will be up to the task! It will be doing some work!
