Towing Doge Journey 2009

I have a Dodge Journey 2009. It is front wheel drive automatic. It has a curb weight of 3,796 pounds. My MH (Georgeboy 36) has limit of 5000 so good on that score. I already have the Dodge Journey. Some questions:

1. Has anyone pulled a Dodge Journey automatic?
2. Do I need a tow dolly?
3. Can I go with a straight bar so all 4 wheels are on the ground?

Check your owners manual and with a dealer about 4 down towing. If you only vacation a tow dolly is a option but add-on equipment might be a better way to go for the same money.

There are many tow bar systems to be had. Go to Blue Ox for an education before you spend any money. Blue Ox Towing Products | Towbars, Baseplates, Accessories and more

Keep us posted as you get answers. Thanks.
