I've just changed my car and my new one has a detachable type tow-bar already fitted. As I have never had one before, all the previous being of the fixed type, I thought I had better read up about them. One of the things I came across, and the thing that I believe must be a total load of rubbish states "If you attempt to back up with the tow bar still connected, you will end up bending the tow bar if you don't disconnect first. This can cause damage to your RV, tow bar, tow vehicle,"
For anyone new to our hobby, if they read this they may believe it is true (along with a lot of other misinformation).
Or perhaps it is true !?!?
