Ok then.
This is also why automatics make a poor choice for towing if we are compareing apples to apples.
All im saying is...
1- in two comperable vehicles used for towing a manual is going to be significantly cheaper and more trouble free over the life of the vehicle. Also, when installed in a similar vehicle a manual should be able to tow just as much as the auto version, unless the auto is significantly stronger then the offered manual. Rarely is this tht case ever, and certainly not in the RBV world.
