[VAC] Re: Towing With A Manual 5Speed Transmission



 What year is your truck ? This sounds like one I might want to look for.  I 
have to use my tow vehicle as my every day car and can't afford one of the 
big ones (and I think it is overkill anyway).  Most of the time my Ford 
Bronco is OK but I don't like the handling all that much even with 
improvements I have made and I am looking to go back to a pick up. My 
daughter has a Bronco with a standard transmission that I have used as a tow 
car and it is better than my automatic, but a Bronco is neither a car nor a 
truck, all the disadvantages of both!  Hard to get in and out of, no carrying 
capacity in the back to speak of and hard to use the back at all because it 
is so awkward to get into.  It does run good though. 
Thanks for any input,
