Used toad as a chaser for a few hundred mile on vacation many year ago. Out in the middle of nowhere hit a bad 'dip' leaving a parking lot and tore out the tow cable wiring. WOW!!!! set off the screach alarm. As we had Remco pump in toad didn't want just any yahoo putting it back together. Our installer at home said car would be fine if we stopped every 125/150 miles ~ held the brake down and cycled it thru the gears. Worked fine ~ did use a little more fuel. Didn't have to hook up every day. Had family 2way radio so we could communicate. All in all not too bad.
JM2¢ ~~ YMMV
