Most Popular Towable Vehicles (Dinghys/Toads)
If you’re planning to flat tow a vehicle behind your motorhome, it’s important to start with a vehicle that’s built for the job. Not all cars are created equal when it comes to being a dinghy and getting flat towed — and even within a model line, not every trim or submodel may be flat towable. That’s why it’s critical to consult your vehicle’s owner’s manual before attempting to tow. The manual will clearly state whether the vehicle is approved for flat towing, and under what conditions.
