I have an opportunity to purchase a nice little 2013 Miata and if I can make the 4 down towing equation work without having to reinvent the wheel and would like to go forward. I have seen lots of folks towing them 4 down but Blue Ox, Roadmaster and Trailer all have said no go. I spoke to a tech at the Mazda dealership and he said no problem with the 6 speech manual trans, just make sure you are in neutral and you're good to go?
If you or anyone you know tows a Miata please enlighten me as to what set up you/they have. Any tips pro or con would be appreciated. I have gone 6.5 years with no toad for 24' Nexus C but for a number of reason I am now open to pursuing this option. TIA.

I once checked on the Miata for towing, and IIRC, the six speed gearbox uses pressurized oil in the gearbox, so I'd do some serious checking before I towed it.
Sometimes the techs make mistakes on some pretty big issues.
