Subject:      Towing 90 Vanagon Auto w/Tow Dolly
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed


Volks,
Bought a motorhome (no westy flames please, we are expecting our fourth
child!) and we are considering towing the 90 Carat w/auto tranny on a
tow dolly. I expect I would have to tow it backward, that is with the
front wheels down. Anyone know if the Vanagon Auto tranny is ok w/towing
in neutral?
Anyone towed a late model Vanagon w/auto on a tow dolly cross country.
I will be getting a tow dolly with electric or surge brakes, I am
leaning toward electric as I hear surge can over heat on long downhills.
Any feedback on any of this appreciated.
