Towing Question??

Looking to tow my GSL-SE to Florida. (900 miles) Has anyone done this distance with a tow dolly? Any advice?

u should disconnect the shaft from the rearend and tie it up with either a bungee cord or a metal coat hanger. probably need to use a light bar unless the dolly ur using has tail/stop lights.

I wasn't sure if I should disconnect the drive shaft. The owners manual said only on auto trans models. Thanks for input, I never towed that far.
