Dare I suggest that you check your owners manual for the section titled "Towing a Trailer"?



BTW, the bottom line is 1000 lbs.

I could be wrong about this, but it seems like too much wear on the clutch to tow with a manual. Towing with an auto is probably much easier on the car due to the torque converter. Just a guess.

actually its the exact opposite, towing with a manual transmission is much better / easier on the car than towing with a auto. The auto tranny would wear out ALOT faster especially if it doesnt have a tranny cooler
