We tow a 2008 Honda Fit - 4 down. Great little car. Surprising how much room there is in it. We went from a 2006 Chrysler 300 to the Fit. The transition wasn't all that bad.

Is your Honda Fit an automatic or manual? Amazing the storage capacity behind the front seats and the seat folding options. Great car!

I see alot in here about towing 4 wheels down what diff does this make on the tow weight max.

Towing 4-down you have just the weight of the dinghy plus the tow bar. If you use a dolly, you now have the added weight of the dolly plus the dinghy. In addition to the added weight you have to to with the dolly, you now have the weight of the hitch on the rear of the coach which adds to the rear axle loading.

If you choose an enclosed trailer, there is even more weight to tow.
