So I got a little ahead of myself. I bought a 5 speed manual rear wheel drive Mercedes SLK to tow behind my RV. After I bought it I started checking on towing. Well, Mercedes can only be towed short distance. I can't find an adapter to connect to the front. The hardtop convertible just seemed like it would be a fun car to have on a trip. Any thoughts? Am I out of luck? I sure don't want to tow with a trailer. Thanks, Reggie
Did you read the entire specs regarding towing distance?
Some just require starting a towed vehicle to circulate the fluids.
I have a Tracker that it is required to be 'started' every 250 miles when being towed. No disconnect required.
In 6 years I have never found it inconvenient to stop and start it every 250 miles. Between pit stops, rest stops, fuel stops etc. It always came at the same time so I have never had to make a stop 'just' to start it.
