Proper way to tow a Wanderlodge

[jburgessx2]

Scott,

Thanks. Seems like the opinions vary a great deal. I thought it
would be important to know this just in case. And, knowing I need to
remove the crossbar is important as well. I assume removing the
crossbar isn't going to allow the tow gear from crushing the
generator.
