> I tow them all the time. > 3 in the last 6 months, I tow them with all 4 wheels on the ground good way to nuke your auto tranny. you can tow manuals like that all day long but not the automatic. ive done it before, years ago when i was a noob, and had the auto tranny fluid cook and sploog out the filler neck and all over the motor from getting so hot and under pressure.. from now on i disconnect axles from the hub, or remove them alltogether, before towing an auto. manuals i leave in place.
