Best Answer

I was told by a Toyota dealer that I cannot dolly tow a car (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION) with the drive wheels on the ground. So, a front wheel drive car can be on the dolly forward but a rear wheel drive would have to be backed on the dolly.

Can you tow automatic transmission Saab?

Yes, you can tow an automatic transmission Saab, but you must be very careful to tow it without it being "in gear". If that is not possible then it is best to have the car moved on a flat-bed truck, or by raising the driving wheels so that they are on a "dolly". A dolly is a sort of low wheeled vehicle which can have the "driven" wheels of the car sitting on the dolly, and not on the road surface.

That car has a relatively low powered engine, and a history of mechanical problems. I wouldn't risk that journey, and definitely not if it has an automatic transmission..

Any car with a standard transmission as long as it is in neutral. Automatic transmissions will overheat and burn up if the engine is not running.
