Had a Civic on a tow dolly prior.... I found it to be a real pain to hook up the dolly and then the car. The CR-V was our answer.

This is the main reason you see so many behind MH's.

I believe the RAV4 can only be towed if it's a manual and following required manuf. steps. The CRV has room in the rear tail lights to put a socket in for your required lights. By passing the vehicle lights with its own wiring. On the "Dinghy Towing Vehicles", check Jan 03 Motorhome magazine for more info. Happy Motoring!

To find, use the search function and search on my UserName in this category. We have a 2001 RAV4 automatic that is listed as towable in the Owners Manual, but I still recommend a lube pump. LOve the RAV4!!!!!!!!! Bear Pop Watkins • View posts Lebanon TN.
