Honda Fit behind RV

I have a 2013 Fit Sport/Navi Automatic. The manual states clearly that it can be towed behind an RV flat on 4. (page 159). I've heard pro's and con's. Anyone out there who did that?

Although not a FIT, I recently saw an RV stopped on the edge of the road and a noticeable amount of smoke was coming off the small car behind it: towed on all 4-wheels. One of those 2-wheel car tow trailers (FIT's drive wheels would be off the ground) might provide piece of mind. Either with / without the car up on a 2-wheel trailer, backing up will be an adventure.

I feel the same way. I am not comfortable pulling an automatic 4 flat. A manual would be ok. Anyway, I do have a dolly that I intend to use on my next trip. I was just curious if someone did pull their automatic 4 down.

You can do it as long as you don't have CVT. If you have manual tranny, then no issue. Just follow your manual in either case.
