Expert Reply:
You can use the Roadmaster Tracker Tow Bar, part # RM-020,if you are only towing the vehicle seldom or one time. If you are towing more often then I would recommend a tow bar that is easier to use such as the Roadmaster Falcon-2, part # RM-520. If you are really getting into RV camping then the non binding tow bars are very easy to use.
If you are setting up to tow your vehicle for the first time then you will need a wiring kit and safety cables to go with the tow bar you select.
For lighting you can use Magnetic Towing Light Kit, part # RM-2120. And for safety cables use # RM-643.
And finally, most states now require supplemental braking on the vehicle being flat towed. One of the easiest systems to set up and use is the Even Brake proportional system # RM-9400. It will apply the Geo brakes in proportion to how much the tow vehicle is braking. This is the easiest way to stop and it reduces wear and tear on both vehicles.
Be sure to consult your Geo owners manual for specific information on flat towing the vehicle. I have also included some helpful links to our series of help articles on flat towing for you.
