Pulling a jeep
I am going to pull a jeep ranger behind my class C for the first time. Do I need to turn the key on?

We tow a standard Rubicon (behind a Sprinter) as comes from factory, with proper baseplate and towbar. The Jeep is charged from the motorhome, and lights are wired to work off the motorhome.
Have never noticed any tire wear, heard any chirping, or witnessed any problems turning while viewing from mirrors. We have turned as sharp as possible several times and I have watched the tires, mainly to see if something isn't going right back there. Never saw anything that would make me worry, although I never knew there might be something like tire scrubbing. Just looked at the tires and there is no unusual wear, although Wranglers will eventually wreck the tires because they get out of round. It takes me about 20K miles before I hear a pronounced, repetitive tire rumble. Even rotate the tires, but it still shows up.
