consider before recreational vehicle

the towing vehicle? Be sure to
read the tow vehicle
manufacturer's
recommendations.

What is the distance that will be
traveled? Some vehicles have
restrictions on how far and how
long they can tow.
.
Is the proper towing equipment
going to be used? See your
dealer or trailering professional
for additional advice and
equipment recommendations.

towed? Just as preparing the
vehicle for a long trip, make sure
the vehicle is prepared to be
towed.
