you can tow a small trailer with a light load as long as your motor is non turbo. Do not tow with turbo charged motor.

BAD ADVICE aveng_95 [:@]There is no factory turboed venge anyway , And I've towed with turboed vehicles before...
The manual says DO NOT TOW I'm pretty sure it's the TRANNY but it doesn't say for sure ...As well as no good place to mount a hitch

Yes I know they sell hitches even MOPAR sold them ... When I asked at the dealership they said it was for mounting bike racks not to tow ....

Bad Veng I will not argue this point with you as I have not towed with my Avenger so therefore you are most likely correct. I was thinking more of the older 4 cylinder cars rather than the newer finicky computer equipped cars. The other fact also is I have a 5 speed tranny that would not be as finicky as the automatic. Sorry dude.

No problem just didn't want him to launch a tranny then face a $2000 rebuild tab
