Good 'thinking ahead' on the toad idea. Lots of great toad vehicles out there but I would definately find one that is towable with all four wheels on the ground. You don't want to be messing around with cumbersome tow dollys. Our first choice a few years ago was a standard Honda CRV but we couldn't find a good used one so picked up a 5 speed standard Hyundai Santa Fe. Excellent car. We now tow a Jeep.Al Bossencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307619781955351484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822169260430560826.post-80562273485122680982011-07-07T23:14:08.653-07:002011-07-07T23:14:08.653-07:00I agree with others...it's time to get rid of ...I agree with others...it's time to get rid of it and get a toad.

You probably hate to get rid of it now that you have just spent all that money on fixing stuff but be cautious of throwing good money after bad.
