Leaving TOAD running while pulling
I have a 2007 Chrysler Town and Country which I tow on a dolly and I would like to flat tow. In order to flat tow it would require a Lube Pump but I have been told another option is to leave the van ...

Another consideration is the toad's braking system. With a load as heavy as a car, you should have an auxiliary system to activates the toad's brakes when the tow vehicle brakes - most flat-towed vehicles operate this way. Most auxiliary braking systems are designed to operate the toad's brakes with the engine off (so no power assist). If you leave the engine running, the pressure applied to the brakes will be way too much, and you'll be constantly locking up the brakes on the toad.
