We are finally parting with our 1998 Sienna and will be getting a new one. Any advice on how long you should break in a new TV before towing the pod on a trip?

Thanks!

When we purchased our new vehicle, the owner's manual was real specific about how many miles to go before towing, how fast to drive without tow vehicle, varying speed, etc. Suggest you read your manual.

If I remember right I think my Honda Pilot was 2,000 miles before towing, but check your manual
