Default towing quattro

Can I tow my car with one of those uhaul things that lifts the front tires of the ground and drags the back?. I dont think i can because of the quattro but nor sure.

you can rent a flatbed trailer from uhaul as well, I dont think its much more expensive than a tow behind.

a tow behind can cause serious damage to differentials
