Because I -sometimes- need added space & carry capacity, I purchased a low miles 2009 Saturn Outlook - Last year of production. Seats 7 (8 if kids) for local trips and tows without any problems! Basically, this is all I need to do to be ready to tow - I have a Blue-Ox Adventa setup:
1-I drive up close to the back of the rig
2-Put the tow bar into the received & secure
3-Extend the tow arms to the brackets and secure
4-Backup the Saturn gently until the tow bar locks (usually only a couple of inches)
5-Leave the transmission in neutral and the Key position to ASSY.
6-(Optional - not needed for a short run) Lift the hood and flip the switch to tow mode - same as pulling a fuse but much easier. Thus miles towed do not register on the odometer.
7-Hookup the Lights cable
8-Hookup the braking cable
Do the final walkaround on the rig - and GO!!
