Don,
Thanks for the link to FMCA, I'll head over there. How expensive is it
to modify, say my Expedition to be towable? I had a Jeep, actually 2.
The first one was the worst vehicle I've ever owned and also the first
year, 1984 that it came out, Cherokee, 4wd. After I traded it in 3 years
later, I bought a 2 door, 2wd and it was great.
It would need to be used, I over the new car years, what would you
recommend in a used, under $8,000 or so?

without paying anything.

There are a tiny number of Jeep products that can't be towed without
mods, but generally they are only ones with 2-wheel-drive. 4-wheel Jeep
products almost always have a transfer case with a Neutral position.

there is almost nothing you won't see being towed in your travels. I
would say, though, that the Jeep line is probably the highest number of
any single brand.
