I am in need of a vechicle to tow when we go on trips. We have a suburban but it's heavy and I prefer not to take it on camping/beach trips. The vehicle will be towed with our motorhome and needs to sit 8 (we have 6 kids). I am considering a 70 VW bus: good price point, can sit up to 9 with the correct sitting configuration, easy to work on, parts are cheap, and it's fairly light weight (2000 lbs I think...is this right?). My question, is anything special required to tow a VW bus? I read some vehicles require transmission pumps and am wondering if the VW requires this or some or preparation? Thanks for your help and here is a picture of the motorhome: 1985 Bluebird, PT-40.
