No, Saturn automatic transmissions should not be towed four wheels down. Towing a vehicle with an automatic transmission in this manner can lead to damage, as the transmission may not be properly lubricated without the engine running. It's recommended to use a flatbed tow truck or lift the front wheels off the ground when towing. Always consult the owner's manual for specific towing guidelines for your vehicle.

With the drive wheels off of the ground. Automatic transmissions depend on a pump to keep the internal transmission parts lubricated. If you tow ANY vehicle with an automatic transmission with the wheels on the ground (even in neutral) you will most likely burn the transmission up. The ONLY way around this is to let the car idle in neutral while being towed, or if it is RWD, disconnect the driveshaft. If the car has a manual transmission, you can simply tow it in neutral even with the wheels on the ground.

What is faster a manual 79 camaro or an automatic?
Vehicles with manual transmissions almost always have more net horsepower at the rear wheels. More power is siphoned off through the torque converter in an automatic transmission than through the clutch and pressure plate in a manual transmission, thereby giving you greater rear-wheel horsepower from a manual transmission. That being said, automatic transmissions shift from gear to gear faster than you are able to shift gears in a manual transmission, unless you are really, really good at speed shifting. :)
