Thank you for the reply. I’m just paranoid I guess. I’ve been told by some don’t do it and others said it’s fine. Seen a few posts of people towing with no issues. I just don’t want to put so much stress on the x5 due to its age, miles, transmission, suspension etc....

Any pointers for first time newb? Dos and donts? Tire pressure? Etc
