- Whatever is towable without modifications that you like.
We tow a 2008 Chevrolet Colorado 4 door 4 wheel drive pickup. Button on the dash sets it for towing.
Look at Trailer Life dinghy towing guide. Gives all the vehicles and what mods if any are required. - Not necessarily in order:
Some Jeep models
Honda
Saturn(We have the Vue which has been discontinued. The Chevrolet Captiva has taken its place)
Chev Equinox, Malibu, Chevelle
Remember, the owners manual is usually the ultimate authority. - I'm not a fulltimer or MH owner but I have noticed that Jeeps appear to be the most common and possibly Saturns next. Less and less Saturns though since they haven't been built for a few years.
- Jeep Wrangler.
- not a full-timer but get a toad that does not need any modification, tranny pump, drive shaft disconnect, etc. to tow. and check the owner's manual for instructions under either towing behind a motorhome or recreational towing to verify towability. do not rely on other non-official sources other than for the initial cut at potential toads.
