TOAD question
I am just curious, How do they get around the locking steering wheel and placing it in neutral? Do they modify the TOAD in some way?

Some automatic transmission cars can be towed four-down, but a special kit has to be installed on the transmission for cooling. I don't know about the steering. Most tow'eds have a baseplate installed that the towbar connects to. A braking system and lighting setups are also part of the picture.

My ranger that I towed did not have a locking steering wheel. If you do have a locking wheel you will need to put the keys in and turn it one click to disengage the lock.
