I have been searching the web trying to find what car I should get to tow behind a Class A..I don't want to fool around , I just want to be able to hook and on hook, easily. Any advice from you experienced folks would be appreciated.

Subaru manual transmission fits your criterion. Subaru automatic transmission requires a full trailer since it can not be towed with ANY wheels on the ground.

1. put in neutral
2. release parking brake
3. turn key 1 notch from LOCK to OFF

you are ready to tow, no speed restrictions, no distance limits, no pre-towing procedure of gears to go through.

Do you want a car, SUV, truck, 4W, 2W, under 4K lb, 5K, 10K auto or manual transmission. New or used in what price range?

There are many choices to pick from.
Many may need just a fuse pulled or needing engine ran for 5 minutes every so many hours.

Not all cars can be towed 4 down per manufacturing specs.

Whether a car can be towed 4 down is found in the car's Owners Manual. Look under "Recreational Towing".

It will show your right there whether it can be towed 4 down or a dolly is needed or it can NOT be towed.

So either find a car you like and look at the owners manual

OR

use the above info and search thru the ones known to be able to be towed 4 down in the Motorhome Magazine.....which i would still check with the owners manual of the one you decide on.

Good Luck in your search for that perfect toad!

Any of them can be towed 4 down, it's just a matter of how much equipment you must add to do it.
