2012 GMC Sierra 1500 4x4 with automatic trans. We have towed it about 32k miles without a problem. For the 2012's, no fuses need to be pulled, just follow the owner's manual procedure.

I just bought a 2014 CRV AWD. to tow behind a Thor Ace. For 15 years my husband and I towed a jeep.......it was great! Best car to tow and the most fun, especially if you are adventuresome. Never have to worry about taking "the road less traveled".

06 Saturn Vue, AWD, Auto Transmission. Blue Ox bar and base plate. Brake Buddy. Put in Neutral, Key to ACC, pull Ignition fuse and roll on'. Ready for a new toad though and am looking at the Chevy Spark, manual tranny, lots of good reviews being used as Toads as well as daily driver. Price seems right as well. If anyone else likes the Spark, please chime in. Thanks.

Depending on where we are going we either tow a 13 Tahoe 4wd. Nothing special needed or a 15 GMC 2400HD 4WD.
It requires Batteries disconnected and Key in on Position to not lock wheel.
Both require transfer case in neutral

We have an Itasca Ellipse 40WD.

The toad is a 2015 Ram 2500 Megacab 4x4. Carli suspension, 37" Toyo AT's.

Hook it up. Transfer case in Neutral, trans in Park. That's it.

We are looking at an SRX as a tow. What year do you tow? Thanks

Also tow a 2016 Jeep Wrangler. So simple to tow and fun to drive when you get there, especially in Colorado.

We tow a 2014 F150 super crew 4x4. Just weighed it,6220lbs. Very easy to tow. Put transfer case in neutral by turning shift knob back and forth quickly several times, turn key to unlock steering lock and take off.
Just bought a 2016 Cadillac SRX AWD for another toad option.
