Default Towing with a 2.5 manual

Hello,

May be buying a ZT-T 190 LPG instead of a diesel.

Any one tow with a 2.5?

I've always towed with autos so was wondering if they tow ok.

I tow with a 2.0ltr diesel with auto box and it is so relaxing having auto-cruise as it changes up and down when required to maintain a constant speed.

Depends on what weight you are towing,the diesel has a towing capacity of 1600kg,not sure about the petrol engine,check towing spec in your handbook.

I've towed caravans for over 20 years. towing with Vovo's, Discoveries etc..and can say that the 75 is one of the best towcars out there..
My 2.5 auto is excellent, so a manual will be just as good..
