Rear wheel drive/front wheel drive is a matter of opinion. Many years ago I had a Mk2 Cortina automatic with rear wheel drive, and I pulled a large front wheel drive Austin 1800, complete with caravan, off a muddy field with no problem. The Austin just sat and spun its wheels and got nowhere!
Personally, I prefer rear wheel drive for towing, as the weight of the trailer is pushing down on the drive wheels, unlike front wheel drive, where the weight on the tow-ball is tending to lift the front of the car. Having said that, I now have a front wheel drive Volvo V70, which tows just fine.
