Can you organize your thoughts into a series of sentences? You kids and your stream of consciousness typing habits are excruciating to extract information from. Us old bastards around here really appreciate at least an attempt at basic literacy.

Are you saying you want to tow another car with a Civic? Absolutely not.

CAN you do it, sure. you can also pee on an electric fence, that doesnt mean you want to. I tow a riding lawn mower with my civic lx regularly. At most 1000# and between the hills and the constant shifting Im glad when the trip is over (80 miles round trip on the highway). Getting the car and trailer moving is not the problem. Stopping is. Without a way of controlling the brakes of the towed car, you are setting yourself up for a very dangerous ride
