Towing with an Automatic car

Trust me, once you've had an auto you'll not go back.

Towing is straightforward, no special tricks, nothing to wory about.

When looking for a used automatic Kia Sportage i found just the opposite that auto were much more rare,i have just changed our manual Sportage to an auto both are six speed boxes,the only diference is the tow limit on the auto is lower, but it is still capable towing our 1300kg  Bailey I had an auto years ago for towing and as far as i remember it was fine, but as i have yet to tow with our latest Kia can only go by what i have been told by others "why have you waited so long to change" as it is a much more relaxed tow

We bought an automatic Sportage 6 months ago after always having manual cars. The automatic is excellent. It's the best towcar we have ever owned.

Can anyone offer me any advice on touring with an automatic car.

Yes, the club can..........

On the open road there's no difference in driving a manual or auto box car.  It's in start stop traffic and town driving that the auto comes into it's own.  My current car is a Kia 7 speed  Auto and the gearbox ratios are spot on, I really like it.  --- My previous car was a Sportage manual which I loved. --- Quite simply, choose whichever you get the best deal on. There is so little to choose between them.  Watch your towing weight though, as the Auto is rated lower than the manual. Also the Auto is a bit more thirsty than the manual. 

K 

not all auto's have a lower towing weight, the vast majority are higher than the manuals.

I don't know why some cars even have 3 pedals  😞 ...... auto every time

You really dont need advice its just easier!

No brainer in my view. Auto is a doddle..

Auto every time
