I'm not sure which part you think is a joke, but what would be humorous
would be the adventure you'd have with the Peugeot crossing Nevada (350
miles in the short direction) in the summer (10,000 foot density
altitude) at 90-100 deg F temperatures (typical). If the Peugeot doesn't
have air conditioning, that "60+ mph" would make the trip seem like a
lifetime in Hell.

I crossed the alps more than once with comparable cars towing a single
seater. Admittedly not at 37°C and without air conditioner. And neither
at 100km/h, at least not uphill.

While a Peugeot 205 may be a little bit on the edge, any reasonably
modern car in the 2L class does the trick pretty comfortably, most even
with a two seater attached.
