Dolly towing a Model Y behind a motorhome?

[Weighit]

I currently flat tow a Cadillac SRX behind my motorhome, I own a Model X that cannot be towed that way. But If I bought a Model Y rear wheel drive I could buy a tow dolly and back the Y on the dolly and tow that way. Is anyone doing that on this forum? Wondering how the front bumper will survive being towed backwards like that? Any issues I need to know about before I go spend some cash??

It shouldn't be towed that way, all tires off the ground while its being towed.

It’s a shame that you couldn’t regen it all the way...

It works! Have to take turns being inside the vehicle.

I mean it similar to driving down a big hill... just for a long time.

Can't say I'd do this regularally, but in a pinch, it works!

I don't see any technical reason why that wouldn't work. The trick will be finding a RWD Y, which were only sold as SR models for a very brief period of time.

I would like to see the ability to flat-tow a Tesla behind my motorhome. I currently have a Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid that I flat tow by putting in neutral and pushing a button.
If Tesla could implement that, I would love to trade-in for a Tesla.

I say custom order a motor home that you can “store” the Tesla in directly!

You can buy a 1500lb aluminum 2axle trailer. A trailer will be the only way to tow a tesla behind your RV.
