Flat-towing means engine off and all 4 wheels on the ground while being towed. Most all automatics can't be flat-towed without modification (such as driveshaft disconnects). With the engine running and all 4 wheels on the ground, then automatics can be flat-towed in neutral - although you'd want someone in the car to make sure it didn't kick into drive, etc.

PaleMelanesian - I'm with you on that. My pulse and glides would be a joke.
