? about tow vehicle, need help
Can any vehicle with standard transmission be towed with my MH? Just put it in neutral and go. I hate to go buy another car when I've got one that's a standard. All help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

A primary reason many standard shift transmission equipped vehicles can not be towed safely is based on how the transmission is lubricated. Those that should not be towed rely on the input shaft on the front end turning and splashing oil/gear oil for lubrication. Engine off, in neutral = no rotation and no lubrication while the tail shaft/drive shaft is rotating other things inside the gear box. Those lubricated by the tail shaft splashing lubricant are generally safe to tow in neutral/engine off. As stated by others, consult your owners manual.
