I was towing with a dolly (2 wheel), not a tow bar. With the overload coils on the back, the rear end rode at about the normal height. Actually, a properly loaded dolly only has about 100 pounds of tongue weight, which is fine according to Volvo.

I'm not actually planning on doing any towing with my automatic 245, but I've been curious about what others have done.
