We towed a 9000 behind our Bluebird and never had any problems--the transmissission is in park so it has no more effect on it than sitting in your driveway does. If you do it make sure you get a really good brand name dolly, preferably with either surge or electric brakes and lights. The ones where the wheels turn are the best. I don't know why everyone is so hot about towing with four wheels down, it's really a lot of hazzle. Assuming you get something that can be towed without a transmission pump or drive shaft disconnect, you still have to disable the steering lock, do something about brakes and lights and have a tow bar put on your car (which looks like crap). If you get a different car you have to undo it all and start over with another car. You don't gain anything on manuererability. When we stopped somewhere for a while we'd just roll the tongue of the tow dolly under the rear of the coach, so it didn't take up much room either. As long as you'd prefer to own something with front-wheel drive I can't think of any drawbacks to them.
