Your typical car rental contract prohibits "towing or propelling any
other vehicle".

Wouldn't surprise me if a longer term lease did, too.



Dick,

Wrong again. Stop guessing and check the lease - that might "surprise"
you. Why would they install a towing package on a leased vehicle if
towing wasn't allowed?

Things must be different where Richard lives.
When I leased the Ranger pickup, I told anyone who would listen that I
wanted the truck to tow my sailboat. I even went back and corralled my
salesman and the sales manager for advice on attaching the s type safety
chains to the step bumper if i could tow that way.
They sent me across the street to talk to the body shop manager who tows
quite a bit. I did eventually get a Class 2 hitch because of the height
of the bumper.
At Smithers insistence I checked my lease...no tow restrictions. (unless
it's in invisible ink)
