Jeep Patriot - Flat Tow - ????

I have been pulling my 2014 Ford Escape around on a dolly for a year and I am tired of it. After my last camp out and talking to the man in the site next to me I have decide to get a vehicle I can flat tow.

I found a 2016 Jeep Patriot - 2.4 liter with 5 speed manual transmission. It has 10,000 miles - sale price $ 13,499

Here is the link to the car:

I am looking at a Falcon 2 tow system ...

Good combo? Anyone towed the Patriot?

I don't want to make a 16K mistake.

Thanks

Most manual transmission vehicles can be towed 4 down. The Falcon is a good tow bar I had the Falcon all terrain. If the vehicle is what you want how could it be a mistake.
