all of the replies talk about towing 4 down. we went from 4 down towing to dolly towing. there are many more choices with a dolly(almost anything front wheel drive). we changed as needed a small station wagon and the choices for 4 down were few. we have a vw jetta wagon. really like it do not see much difference in hook up time and the gas mileage difference between the traverse and the vw is HUGE
