  • How to Tow 2018 Chrysler Pacifica Behind Motorhome
  • I took a look at the online owner's manual for your 2018 Chrysler Pacifica, and it says flat towing with all four wheels on the ground is not allowed, but so long as it is a front-wheel drive, you can tow it behind your motorhome using a tow dolly.
