tow rig

8 Episode Mentions

Too Afraid to Ask

A tow rig is the truck or vehicle you use to pull the trailer. If you don’t already have something that can tow safely, that’s another thing to plan for.

Technical Definition

A “tow rig” is the vehicle used to tow the trailer carrying the UTV. This matters because UTV ownership isn’t just about the purchase price; you also need towing capacity, hitch setup, and safe transport planning.
