"TO tow or not to tow, that is the question"
wow, I really had no idea it was so complicated to tow a car. I just knew I wanted to be able to back up. In about 1980 I had a '76 Ranchero that the shifter broke on. I was too broke (or lazy) to fix it, and so I just left in drive for about six months or so. I would start it with my foot on the brake and drive it, making sure I didn't pull into anywhere I'd have to back out of. I remember how I could sometimes pull into some parking spots, and then when I wanted to leave I would start it, lunge forward while turning off the engine, and it would bounce off the parking block and roll back enough (while turning a little) to then re-start it and pull away. I was unemployed at the time. I now wonder if that caused deep-scarring traumatic issues that are affecting my desire to keep my back up otions?
