Honda CRV
does anyone use this vehicle as a 4 down TOAD? Likes? Dislikes? What fuses need pulled if any? My father has a 2013 for sale, I am thinking about purchasing it for a TOAD. Thanks

We have a 2014 CR-V, and had the battery run down the first couple of times we towed. (I tried following the directions in the manual, but they told me to pull the wrong fuse.) I plan to have a charge line installed one of these days, but in the meantime, I just disconnect the positive battery cable as the last part of my hookup. Adds about 30 seconds.
Two years ago, I had our 2010 run down the battery when, during a very bad weather situation in Central Texas, I drove for an extended period. I immediately replaced the original battery with a Costco battery, apparently a much better battery. My practice has always been to take a break after driving a couple of hours, turn on the car, run it through the gears and then let it idle for a couple of minutes. So far, I have gone as long as 5 hours before starting the car without any issues. And since I like to drive for 3 hours and stay for 3 weeks, it works for me!
