Just wondering the basics about it. I just bought a truck that was pulled. It has the bart to disengage the drive shaft already. But what I want to know is does it still accumulate mileage?

I would say that the mileage might not add up on the speedo but that mileage will kill the tires, shocks, and suspension. I can never understand if you have the cash to buy a RV why not pick up a $1500 open trailer and trailer your vehicle
I'll keep my freedom, my guns, and my money. You can keep your change.
Trailers are not used to keep the footprint/overall size/weight lower.
Theres a lot of issues towing an 4x4/awd. It's called a "toad". Usually fwd cars are used.
I thought that Saturns were really the only cars that could be "neutral towed."

If the drive shaft has a disconnect, no mileage is added to the odometer while being towed. Check out WWW.RV.NET website for all of the info you would ever need on "toads". Go to FORUMS and look under Dinghy Towing.

Sounds good. It does make sense though. I just picked up a truck and it drove like it should of had less mileage on it.
my girlfriends grandparents tow a freightliner sprinter class B motor home behind a class A, quite the site! when my gf and I picked up my cummins in MN we took her moms saturn (AT) that was setup for towing. we ended up towing it behind on the way back. i know there is some fuse you have to pull, but i dont know if thats only on a saturn.
