just put the key in and put it on nuetrel and make sure the ebrake is down. and have someone behind the wheel to control the brakes and turns and what not. tow strap from autozone is like 5 bucks.

Default no prob

You won't have any problems, I pulled a dually with a turned out front wheel for 5 miles. The tire chirping on the asphalt sounded like a space ship landing, people were coming out of their houses to see what was making the racket.
