I’ve noticed the same smell. Do you tow unlimited (miles and speed)? I’ve heard different thoughts on this.

I drive like it aint back there. Don't feel it braking at all. Only a few hills slow me down. I'm a 400ISL Cummins so I'm down on power. I was surprised at the ease of towing a large truck.

As to trailers and dolly's. One of the RV magazines did a study. People tend to NOT use their tow vehicles when traveling because of the loading and unloading. Flat towing isn't that way. The modern tow bars make it easy to hook up and get rolling.

Motorhome magazine has an annual guide that states what each vehicle takes to flat tow behind a coach they have a rating system to pick the best for each year.

You might be able to google years past or maybe call for last years guide.... they also have a quick disconnect drive shaft for some vehicles if it’s not 4wd. Frt wheel drive car you can used a tow dolly and drive the Frt wheels up on a mini trailer/dolly, electric brakes work good with this set up.

I flat towed my 2005 jeep wrangler unlimited rubicon, I didn’t even know it was there.
