Towing with class c Jayco

[Rsteelie]

Just traded in my travel trailer for a Jayco class c, so I am new to towing. Jayco shows 5000 lb towing capacity and I need to think about buying a car which will be compatible. Any suggestions out there?

How about a Jeep Wrangler? They can be towed four-down with either a 5 speed or auto transmission. Cost more than a Subaru and don't get as good gas mileage, but you can do a lot of exploring in one and they hold their value quite well.

If you want a standard transmission, all Subaru's with standard tranmission can be towed 4 down. Full time 4 wheel drive. High clearance. No routine to go through before towing or so many miles/hours. No speed or distance restrictions.

1. release parking brake
2. put transmission in neutral
3. turn key 1 click to unlock steering and go

No Subaru with an automatic transmission can be towed any way but 4 wheels up on a trailer.
