Dingy

We (Jeep) have 4 wheel down towing available on Liberty, Wrangler, Grand Cherokee, and even the new Cherokee.

We tow a 07 jeep wrangler, no problems, place the transfer case in neutral, unlock the steering, and go.

What's the simplest vehicle to use as the dingy. It can't be to small cause I'll have trouble clinbing in and out of it. A jeep may work but don't know if they can be towed and do they have to be a manual trans.


Thanks Jerry

I tow a '06 Jeep Liberty. It is an automatic trans. Pulls easy and rather light. Lotsa Space.

If getting in and out needs to be easy it is hard to beat a smart car. Huge doors and a high seat. Might want to check them out.

A Suzuki Grand Vitara might meet your needs. They are not made anymore but if you can find a used one, 4- wheel drive only, not all wheel drive, check it out and see if its adequate for your entry/exit. I'm 240 lbs and its very easy for me to enter and exit.

We tow a 2008 Chevy Colorado pickup truck. 4 door, 4 wheel drive. Easy to set up and easy to tow. Button on the dash puts the transfer case in neutral.
FMCA or Motorhome magazine has a Dinghy towing guide that tells all the vehicles that can be towed. http://www.fmca.com/images/stories/pdf/towing_2013.pdf
