Default Flat towing an SC using a tow-bar

Hey guys, I really want to build up another SC, but as the years passed, I found that I have less and less to spend. I saw a few cars not running for sale and I could use your advice in flat towing an SC using a tow-bar, which I saw was one of the least expensive way to tow a car if I could get the cheaper tow-bar. Has anyone connected one up to the front of an SC before? What tow-bar did you use, and does it bolt on to the front of the SC without modification? I found a list of parts here:

I have a Pilot and a Tacoma that I can tow with. I know you could rent tow dolly's from uhaul but at the prices their charging to rent one, I could buy a tow bar for few dollars more and re-use in the future. I've never towed anything before so any insight would be appreciated.

From the owners manual:

"Your vehicle is not designed to be dinghy towed (with four wheels on the
ground) behind a motorhome.Lexus warranties do not apply to damage caused by dinghy towing".

I typically will use a dolly and take the driveshaft out
