[DML] Re: Towing the DMC

["Harold McElraft" <hmcelraft@xxxxxxx>]

I wouldn't tow it unless I used a trailer or flatbed. The tow by the 
rear wheels turns parts inside the trans and without trans pressure 
you will damage it. Towing from the rear does not allow much 
clearance in the front so the pieces in the front get damaged by the 
road.
