Mtlavery Report post Posted April 8, 2012 Does anyone know if you can tow a 1999 Rav4 with automatic transmission? Cannot seem to find any information about it on the Internet. Thanks, Mike... F6166S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Briarhopper Report post Posted April 9, 2012 Perhaps someone towing one will reply, but just in case, I'll toss in my thoughts. The manuafacturer is the best source if you have a particular vehicle in mind as you do. If you already own it and have a manual, check there first. If no manual in hand, you may be able to view one online from Toyota. If the manual does not address recreational towing (aka flat towing, four wheel down towing) then a good dealer could probably help. Toyota is known for good customer service, so you may be able to call them direct. There is a company, Remco, that offers towing equipment and they have a online applciation guide. Just Google Remco. Even if you find info on a non-Toyota web site, would not be a bad idea ot confirm the information with Toyota, because some vehicles that can be towed have very specific instructions. My thoughts. Hope they help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OkieDave Report post Posted April 9, 2012 According to the dingy towing guide: The manual-transmission-equipped Toyota RAV4 (2,723–2,844 pounds) can be towed four wheels down. I had looked into towing one a while back and the automatic is not towable 4-down, so I got a Honda CR-V. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
