Towing a Jeep
I am currently a TT owner and have noticed a lot of MHs towing Jeeps. I am considering a MH purchase and am trying to find out what the advantage is to having a Jeep as your toad. DW is all for owning...

second, most newer models that can be flat towed will not require a key to be left in the ignition or the key turned to the 'on' position. this eliminates the need to pull fuses to avoid battery drain or to run a charging line from the MH to the toad battery. again check the owner's manual.
True about some models not requiring the key in the ignition to be towed. Keep in mind, that if you're using a towed vehicle braking system that requires 12V DC power to function (aka, the auxiliary braking system is powered by the towed vehicle's battery, like the Blue Ox Patriot II) you might want to consider running a battery charging link from the towing vehicle to the towed vehicle, to keep your braking system working, and to keep the towed vehicle's battery charged.
