Many families who go on vacation regularly often choose to spend it in a recreational vehicle, or RV for short. When they wish to bring their regular car along with them, having the ability to flat tow the car is important. There are a number of towable cars for RVs that are easy to mount on a rail. The best types of cars for this situation are those that are towed closely to the ground, such as
. smaller sedans and coupes. It is also easier to tow a car with automatic transmission than one with manual transmission. Many manufacturers sell cars that allow flat towing and say so in their ads and online specification listings. With a few accessories it is possible to flat tow a car that does not have four-wheel drive. Before buying a car or RV, make sure it can handle the weight of the car. Towing capacity guides are available online. When towing the car, put the tow bar low to the ground so the car can lie flat on the ground. Make sure the car is always in neutral. Once it is started, turn it on and put it into drive and then into neutral so that it can coast. Putting it drive first protects the transmission; if it were in neutral first the car would have a reverse setting while moving forward, which would destroy the transmission. Never leave the steering wheel in the locked position, but leave it in the center point instead so that the steering wheel can move. If the wheel does not have the ability to move it may contribute to a serious accident. In order to keep the car in good shape when towing it in behind an RV, always follow the manufacturer's instructions before flat towing the car. Otherwise it can cause serious damage that may void the car's warranty.
