aparently when you hook up your trailer your supposed to put the switch to the N for about 10 seconds then back to forwheel drive, its in the manual on what "exactly" to do.

All of the towing companies around here tell you when you call them, if it is a 4wd vehicle it automatically goes on a flatbed. Apparently too many trannies have been destroyed by towing them wrong.

According to our manual, 2wd cannot be safely towed dingy style. There is a whole procedure for shifting a 4wd into N in order to dinghy tow it. 2wd can only safely be towed with the rear wheels off the ground.
