On this same subject, does anyone have any knowledge or insight regarding
using a Subaru as a TOAD.
It is good on the weight scale, but it has all-time 4WD. Would this present
a problem and/or necessitate considerable modification?
I have an older Subaru which has been indestructible, and often though of
getting a newer model to tow. Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks, Tony B.
