SUVs that can be towed
I need to buy, and then tow, a mid- to full-sized SUV. 1) Does anyone know what SUVs can be towed? 2) Any recommendations for a particular vehicle Thanks

I'm pretty sure that they ALL can be towed with a dolly, two down.
And I am positive that they all can be towed on a trailer, four up.
I understand the small extra hassles of a dolly but that gives you maximum flexibility.
ALL SUV's cannot be dolly towed. Essentially, FWD can be dolly towed but AWD and RWD generally cannot - ignoring towing a RWD backwards which is not recommended. Additionally, foreign makes are really bad about even addressing it in their owners manual, leaving out "Recreational Towing" and forcing you to look at the general towing (i.e. tow truck) section. There they will show the wheel supported lift which simulates a dolly, but then put other restrictions like 35 mph and 50 mile max while noting full trailer/truckbed towing preferred with all 4 wheels up.
