Assuming you have auto trans. If flatbed truck is not an option, then get the drive wheels off the ground when towing. You don’t want the driveshaft turning the auto transmission. This means towing it with the back wheels off the ground. Or, tow by putting back wheels on a “dolly” and then lifting the front wheels off the ground. ---

Is this going to be your “get around” vehicle that you tow behind your RV or is it having some kind of mechanical problem? Auto or manual?
