They can tow most cars by the rearend. If thats not possable then they can tow by the front with the tranny in N but the engine must be runing to pump lube.EDIT: I foregot that some tow trucks carry dollies with them as well. They pick the rearend of the car up and put the dollies under the rear wheels then set them on the dollies. They then tow it by the front as normal.
The problem with using a normal tow truck is you are going to damage either the front bumper nose or the rear bumper cover if you tow it from behind.
My SVT has a special section in the owners manual that I'm supposed to show the tow truck guy so he can even get the car on a rollback. You have to lay a couple of 2x4's along the edge of the flatbed once he gets it as low as he can.
The angle is still to steep to load the car without doing this and will drag the tailpipes and rear ground affects thus damaging the parts.
The best thing to do if you dont have the money to get a rollback is to disconnect the driveshaft at the rear pumpkin and push the driveshaft forward into the tailhousing of the tranny. Then wire the driveshaft in a way that will keep it from sliding out the tailhousing and hitting the flange on the pumpkin that it bolts up to.
This method will work if you are going to use a tow strap.
You just leave the tranny in P and turn on the ignition to unlock the steering wheel so you can steer.
Hope this helps......and be careful, dont try to go too fast. Remember the brakes are going to be stiff without the engine runing...allow for that.
Good luck.
