Recreational Vehicle Towing

Recreational vehicle towing means towing your vehicle
behind another vehicle — such as behind a motorhome.
The two most common types of recreational vehicle
towing are known as "dinghy towing", which is towing
your vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, and
"dolly towing" which is towing your vehicle with
two wheels on the ground and two wheels up on a
device known as a "dolly".
Your vehicle was not designed to be towed with any of
its wheels on the ground. If your vehicle must be
towed, see "Towing Your Vehicle" earlier in this section.

Towing a Trailer

Your vehicle is neither designed nor intended to tow
a trailer.
