That doesn't sound too bad at all.Good cellular, 4 miles away to water/dump, 16 miles away to groceries.
So at the risk of being ridiculed, I'm going to go ahead and ask this question anyway. I've never pulled an unmanned vehicle with all four of its wheels on the ground before. Is there something you do to make sure it tracks behind you properly without veering wherever it feels like?
Dunno about vehicles with power steering. I know some vehicles have to be left running while being flat towed. You'd have to leave a key in the ignition and turned to unlock the steering wheel, at the very least. I'm sure you can find info online on RV forums, for specific models. Jeeps are among some of the most popular.
I didn't know about that, thanks.Look up "RV dinghy guides" for annual PDFs of vehicles that can/can't be flat towed and potential drawbacks if they can be.
I didn't know that about the effect of power steering on towability. I've had a couple of different Beetles at one time or another. I like those cars, should have kept them.The old Beetles have no power steering, so it has no problems tracking.

Ha ha, that's impressive. They ought to use that story for a TV commercial.I drove one 4500 miles round trip with a blown head gasket once. It was burning oil and coolant, but never mixing. Still got 35mpg.
As far as I know, there's no difference between flat towing something with power steering and without. The tow vehicle does all of the hard work of turning the wheels and keeping it tracking straight. The guy who owned the shop I used to work at used a tow bar on A LOT of vehicles. The biggest down side, at least to our trucks, is that the power steering fluid gets pushed up, out of the cap on top of the reservoir and makes a big mess when the front wheels are turned without the engine running.I don't know if it does, but it might? Power steering without the pump running makes it very difficult to turn the steering wheel. But with the wheels turning, it's easier.
About 30 years too late!Ha ha, that's impressive. They ought to use that story for a TV commercial.
