03-16-2024 06:12 AMEviltwinHi Tim. Just wanted to confirm that the newer model Miata's can be towed with the 6 spd manual trannys. I'm looking to buy a 2016 or newer and need it to do double duty as a toad on a dolly as well as a weekend fun car. Thanks, Bob

06-24-2021 04:02 PMgewfishaolMr. Healyman, Appreciate your comments on the Miata. Just trying to understand why Mazda does not want to recognize that the standard shift Miata would make a good toad. I have a 99 that I'm considering setting up as a toad. Looked at purchasing a Jeep for this purpose but the $700 notes really makes you think twice.
Question I have is about the tow bar. With the Miata being fairly low, does the tow bar need to be level? -

11-29-2017 06:57 PMhderrGreetings, I saw your note on the Toad forum about Miatas and brake/turn wiring. We have two NA Miatas I'd like to set up for towing. I am new to flat-towing the car, have used trailers in the past. I'm looking at the road master system as it seems user friendly. I wonder if I could get the details on the wiring you used and any other advice you'd care to share. Appreciate your help. Hank Derr in Cheyenne. HankDerr@aol.com

08-18-2016 06:35 AMcannonguyHi Healeyman. I'm new to this forum. I doing some research and would like to confirm that a Miata could be flat towed by my Class C RV. I noted that you has been involved in many projects. I presume that it could be done. My concern is : Is the manual transmission could be damaged? Some people mention that the gear box won't be properly lubricated while the motor is off, the group gear not spinning. Is is true? What are the procedures to prevent any damages to the transmission ? Many thanks.
