hmmm... what's not true?? First I said the owners manual is the best source of info...

Then "Typically only 4WD with a transfer case neutral - or manual transmissions - can be flat towed."
You have a manual transmission - and your owners manual says you can - great... Typically you need either a transfer case with neutral - or a manual transmission - but even those alone don't mean the manufacturer will recommend flat towing... back to the owners manual...

And the OP said his Durango was 2WD - and not 4WD/AWD... Yes - the AWD with transfer case can be flat towed - the 2WD cannot.
