Then, shut the engine off and close the window almost

all the way to preserve the heat. Start the engine again

and repeat this only when you feel really uncomfortable

from the cold. But do it as little as possible. Preserve the

fuel as long as you can. To help keep warm, you can get

out of the vehicle and do some fairly vigorous exercises

every half hour or so until help comes.

Recreational Vehicle Towing

Recreational vehicle towing means towing your

vehicle behind another vehicle

-- such as behind a

motorhome. The two most common types of

recreational vehicle towing are known as “dinghy

towing” (towing your vehicle with all four wheels on

the ground) and “dolly towing” (towing your vehicle

with two wheels on the ground and two wheels up on

a device known as a “dolly”).

With the proper preparation and equipment, many

vehicles can be towed in these ways. See “Dinghy

Towing” and “Dolly Towing,” following.

Here are some important things to consider before you

do recreational vehicle towing:

What’s the towing capacity of the towing vehicle?

Be sure you read the tow vehicle manufacturer’s

recommendations.

How far will you tow? Some vehicles have

restrictions on how far and how long they can tow.

Do you have the proper towing equipment? See your

dealer or trailering professional for additional advice

and equipment recommendations.

Is your vehicle ready to be towed? Just as you would

prepare your vehicle for a long trip, you’ll want to

make sure your vehicle is prepared to be towed. See

“Before Leaving on a Long Trip” in the Index.
