If looking for new 4 down toad (with automatic) the number of choices is getting smaller. If you are interested in the used market, and older Honda CRV is a good choice. I had a 2013 Chevy Sonic auto that was great as a toad. Currently I’m towing a 2015 Jeep Wrangler. Very easy to tow. As you may be doing a solo thing, I assume the easier the better, so forget a tow dolly.
You will need a tow bar and braking system. There is nothing easier ( IMO ) than the ReadyBrute Elite System.
