Our Toad … well towed, as in towed vehicle is a very FUN 2010 VW Tiguan Wolfsburg 4Motion – it's now a 2012 VW Tiguan SE – now it's a 2015 VW Tiguan SE (yeah we LOVE the Tiguan) all wheel drive for the non VW heads out there 🙂
Unfortunately we can't tow the Tiguan "4 wheels down", so it has to be 4 wheels up on a trailer. While there is a weight and fuel mileage sacrifice for the added weight of the trailer, the trailer is still light enough to be pulled by the Tiguan when we need to use it for other purposes.

The VW Tiguan vs. Nissan Titan V8
Don't underestimate the Tiguan! Our daughter's boyfriend's 4WD Nissan Titan V8 got stuck in the snow on our farm. Pulled it right out with the Tiguan and a 10,000lb recovery strap. No effort. 💪
