This has been mentioned several times on this website but it's worth repeating.
When we had our 2013 CRV set up to tow we had them add a "charge line" to the harness. It charges the battery in the CRV with the motorhome alternator while we're towing, eliminating all the hassle of pulling a fuse, or remembering to flip a cutoff switch. One less thing to remember.
For many, if not most, cars, this is sufficient. However, there are some cars that it would be disastrous. Some cars have electronically controlled transmissions, and if the proper fuse is not pulled, the transmission may randomly shift out of neutral and destroy the transmission.
Be sure you only have to worry about your car's battery running down before using this solution.
