Can a BMW 325 be towed using a regular tow hitch on a Uhaul truck I am making an 8 hour trip?
the 325 is either rear-wheel or all-wheel drive, and should not be towed with the drive wheels rolling for a long distance, or high speeds. Across town would be okay, but longer than that is going to do bad things to the transmission- unless you disconnnect the drive shaft from the transmission. If you did that, it would be okay. If you have a rear-wheel drive, perhaps you could tow with the rear wheels off the ground (car trailering facing rearward).
