Yea, Emery, being built on a truck chassis they are on the heavy side. With a manual trans in neutral, the transfer case in high 2wd and the front hubs unlocked the rear wheels, rear drive shaft and the transmission output shaft will be turning, but that seems no different from any other two wheel rear drive car with a manual transmission so would not think it be an issue. I never could find any definitive statement on whether they can or cannot be towed four down. Where did you find that?

Looking up the specs I see that it weighs 4000 pounds. I also read that it shouldn?t be towed 4 down as it has no neutral on the transfer case.
Otherwise it looks like a fun car.
