If that is true, to avoid, what upward angle on tow bar can you get away with and still be safe?
Thx, Dennis.

I towed my Karmin Ghia for years - until it turned into a little pile of rust in my driveway - and never had an issue. It is a little low and I dragged a few times, but got used to judging. If you do get a beetle, there is a tow bar built specifically for beetles, that fits up under the front suspension and attaches with two pins above the axel. Super easy to get on and off and I could tie it up to the bumper and drive short distances with it on. Easy on the vehicle to tow it that way too. Don't know if there are any still around, but it would be worth looking for.
