Imagine for a moment, that you are traveling the countryside in your brand new or used RV. The world is your oyster! After researching the best spot nearby to explore, you pull into your camp site and park your motorhome. You break out your leveling blocks, hookup the power, and pop out your slides.
Just as soon as you’re all set up, you realize that you need to pick up something from the nearby market. Or, maybe you want to travel to a local trailhead that is just too far to walk. In these circumstances, you don’t want to be forced to prep your RV for travel. You’ll be stuck driving around in it for small trips – hoping to find a parking spot. That would be absurd!
That is why you should tow a vehicle with your RV, and you will need an RV tow bar to do it.
Technically, however, you could tow a car on a trailer or a dolly. Sure, you would save mileage on your vehicle, and wear to the tires, but to me, the benefits are outweighed by the cons: The cost of the trailer, the inconvenience of loading and unloading, being forced to find somewhere to store the trailer, and the extra weight that your RV must pull.
It’s important to note that not all cars can be towed with 4 wheels on the road.

I was pretty amped to create a big table of vehicles that can be flat towed behind an RV, but then I stumbled across a website that has already done an exceptional job of consolidating this information into a printable pdf file. Check out the Downloadable Dinghy Guides at Motorhome.com
For the quick and easy answer, check the owners manual for your vehicle. Make sure to do this, and triple verify that it is indeed flat towable before making a purchase.
From personal experience, I tend to see a lot of Jeeps and Honda CRV’s. Although, a lot of the newer compact, fuel-efficient vehicles, are starting to gain traction.
In my opinion, I recommend that you get a 4×4 vehicle that can handle a little bit of off road travel. You’re exploring the country! Your vehicle should allow you to see even more of it, without the worry of getting stuck.
