Just had a thought. I have a complete Remco driveshaft disconnect kit for a
2004-6 Lexus GX 470 or similar year Toyota Forerunner. I have no use for it
anymore, so I would happily sell it. I also have Roadmaster tow bar brackets
for that vehicle. If anyone is interested, call me a six one
nine-733-569zero or email to ron at bigyohns.com

I have all three (trailer, tow dolly, tow bar) and find the bar the best for
me. It's a 5 minute hookup and I leave the bar on the coach with a locking
pin. You can also buy bars that stay with the towd if you prefer. I find
the trailer the best for backing but a pain to store when parked. Not all
places have pull through lots and you can get pretty long with the trailer
or any combo for that matter. It's a simple matter to unhook the car with
the bar to get parked. The tow dolly is almost impossible to back although
the tow bar is nearly as bad but I have backed straight line a little a few
times. The bar is much easier to handle, especially if you use an aluminum
bar. The dolly will add 4 or 500 lbs to your combination and a trailer
normally 1500 or more.
There are many options for towing four down. A number of automatics are
flat towable and pumps/kits by Remco can be bought or copied to tow others.
Most all sticks and most 4x4's (part time) can be towed four down.
Just my thoughts anyway,
Hal
