Can you flat-tow a Chevy S-10?

I was hoping my Chevy S-10 could tag along on my summer RV trip. Can I flat-tow it behind the RV?

Cassandra Hamilton · Updated on Mar 20, 2023

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.

A summer RV road trip sounds like so much fun! Unfortunately you cannot flat-tow a Chevrolet S-10 behind your RV.

This is because there is no neutral position on the transfer case. As a result, the driveshaft is always engaged. Accelerating your flat-towed S-10 without engaging the gears will result in a destroyed transmission. If you must absolutely flat-tow a Chevy S-10, disconnect the drive shaft first to preserve the transmission.

Before you head out on your trip, make sure you’re covered by a great

policy. It’s a big world—-anything could happen!

If you’re not sure how good your coverage is, let
