Can you flat tow a Cadillac XT6?

My husband and I just retired, and we’ve been looking to buy a luxury SUV to tow with us when we travel in our motorhome. We like American-made products, so the XT6 is on our shortlist. But can we flat tow the Cadillac XT6?

Sadly, you cannot flat tow a Cadillac XT6. While the platform of the XT6 provides a smooth, comfortable ride, it isn’t equipped to handle flat towing. Otherwise, you can severely damage the transmission while also voiding the warranty.
However, you can always use a flatbed trailer or a two-wheel dolly. Towing on a flatbed trailer is relatively straightforward, but if you want to tow the XT6 on a two-wheel dolly, follow these instructions:
  1. Start the XT6 and drive onto the dolly.
  2. Put the car in park.
  3. Turn the vehicle off.
  4. Pop the hood.
  5. Exit the XT6 and secure the vehicle onto the dolly.
  6. Disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal so you don’t discharge the battery during towing.
  7. Close the hood of the vehicle, and you’re ready to go!
