My question is this, the owners manual states to put the key in the off position when flat towing, but this puts the wheel in the locked position, every one I asked as told me this is wrong, do to the fact that this will drag my front tires around the corners, I agree, but the manual is very striat forward and clear on the wheel lock being set in this position. Please Help thanks Kevin
