Page 173: Dinghy towing. BTW: never trust just an online manual. Some vehicles need to have certain options to be towable. The manual that comes with a vehicle is the best bet. Or call the mfr. with your VIN. I know a fellow who bought a used Chev PU and that particular model was NOT towable. My manual is for a Canadian vehicle and is different but still has the same dinghy towing section. I even called Toyota and they said that it was OK to tow if you follow the guidelines. I installed a Blue OX baseplate. Not an easy install. I am stymied as to how to install toad wiring. In order to access the tail lights you have to remove all the plastic side panels. They are held on with clips and are 17 years old and probably brittle. Car only has 50,000 miles and I don't want to damage anything. Might go for wireless lights.
