| Four
reasons we suggest certain cars should not be towed |
- Cars which do not track properly.
- SUBARU (85-90 2WD/4WD): This car will occasionally
opposite lock when starting from a curb at low speed on a
surface with poor traction. This has been verified by our
own testing as well as discussions with SUBARU who has an
extremely strong anti-towing posture. However, note that the
SUBARU JUSTY tows very well.
- CHEVROLET LUV 2WD PICK-UP : The LUV 2WD (not the
4WD)is the poorest tracking vehicle we have ever encountered.
It should not be towed.
- TOYOTA COROLLA FWD '84-'87 and CHEVROLET NOVA '86-'88
: These cars track poorly due to the very small caster
angle choosen by the designer. This is the only TOYOTA with
that problem.
- Cars with structural problems.
- PRE-'85 ISUZU I-MARK : This car has an unusually
light gauge front end. We attempted a design but had to give
up finding a bolt-in arrangement which would pass our tests.
- FORD MUSTANG II : Note this is the MUSTANG II, not
the early or late models. We have no personal experience with
this car, but we understand from another source that on at
least one occasion, the front sub-frame of this car pulled
away while being towed.
- Cars with accessibility problems
- VW KARMEN GHIA; VW TYPE II FASTBACK and SQUAREBACK :
These cars have a very deep sheet metal overhang at the front
which is too light to serve as an attatchment point for a
tow bar.
- PLASTIC FOAM FRONT ENDS : Several cars, particularly
sports models, present similar problems as noted on the VW's
above.
