R&M Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 Checking to see why Dodge recommends not towing a FWD Journey on a car dolly behind a motorhome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 I wish that I could answer your question, as I have seen many FWD cars being towed on a dolly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj cowboy Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 I assume they are talking about those tow bars where all 4 wheels are on the ground. If the front wheels are off the ground, I cant see where there would be a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B4ZINGA Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 It would only be an issue with an AWD, not a FWD. The only FWD cars (or even RWD for that matter) that can't be towed using a dolly are low-to-the-ground cars. My 300M, for example, can only be towed on a flatbed or auto transport, otherwise the fascia will be ripped off and the exhaust risks contact with the pavement on uneven roads. I towed it to Metro Detroit from the Philly suburbs using a U-Haul auto transport attached to the moving van (box truck). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
