Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

You can almost tow your sticks and bricks home with a diesel pusher. Like Mike said, just depends on the tow vehicle.

Tow-ability (4 wheels down) depends on more details than just the make and model. You need the model year and is it an automatic or manual transmission at a minimum. For some vehicles you need to be even more specific, it might depend on having a specific transfer case or engine.

The best guides for tow-ability are the annual Motorhome Magazine Dinghy Towing Guides, available as PDFs at http://www.motorhome.com/download-dinghy-guides/ for $1.99 each.  You can also check http://www.remcoindustries.com/Towing/Store.php and see what they say, it is free.  I don't remember seeing any Nissan vehicles being towed 4 wheels down, but they might still be towable.
