I have a Demco tow dolly that I use to tow our 2019 Fiesta SE (which cannot be flat towed at high speed per the manual) behind our Class C RV. The front wheels of the Fiesta ride on the tow dolly while the rear tires remain on the road.
I'm getting too old to crawl under the car to attach the...

This Air Force One Braking System by SMI Manufacturing was recently removed from a 2010 Jeep Liberty that was previously towed behind a motorhome with air brakes. My RV does not have air brakes and I had purchased another braking system that I needed to make room for... thus the reason for this...

I currently drive a Subaru Forester which is a perfect vehicle for me, but it can't be flat towed.
I'd like to find something similarly competent that CAN but I'm stymied at every turn.
Jeeps simply aren't gonna do it for us for multiple reasons.
Thought maybe a Chevy Equinox would do it but...
I own a 2021 Traverse Premier FWDrive and have successfully dinghy towed it for almost a year. Lately, after going through the setup sequence, the rear wheels remain locked. I can't figure it out. The only other issue I have had with the car is a rapid turn signal flash on the right side...
Learn from my experience. My 2021 Jeep Cherokee has the Stop/Start feature, to save gas I suppose. In southern California (a long way from home) the Jeep would not start after a day's travel. Rather than trying to jump start it I had it towed to the dealer as I had been having other starting...
I’m thinking of buying a new toad down the road, if we go with something on the ford transit platform. I’m looking at the Chevy Trailblazer, anyone drag one behind? Have any good or bad experiences to share?
Its getting tough to find .... I want an SUV that is capable of light offroading and tows 4 down. anything Jeep doesn't appeal due to the reliability issues and as in GC the wobble and clunky procedures to ready/unready for towing.
Many on web say they can then owners manual not. Am looking new...
Our TOAD wobbles behind our 2025 Jayco Greyhawk 27U to the point of being unsafe. We are pulling a 2016 Ford F150 4x4 Lariat (in tow mode), weighing 4782 lbs, using a BlueOx Ascent (?). It wobbles using the installed ReadyBrake to the point it felt out of control - like the tail wagging the dog...
I have a 2005 Newmar Kountry Star 3910. I’m towing a 2011 Suburban four down. Just made a 1100 mile trip to SD from GA. Along the way there were instances where the RV steering and sway were rock solid and other times where it was white knuckle driving at 55mph. It felt like the suburban was...
Hello all
We are considering a new class c after years of towing trailers. How difficult and costly is it to set up a ford f-150 4X4 to flat tow?
I have checked and the F-150 can be flat towed
Thanks in advance for the help and advice
I just moved from a Tiffin Allegro Bus to a 22 Newmar Mountain Aire. Do i need to install a new coach side with tank for the brake or can i just hook to the provided air connection on the Newmar?
Just finished a 30 day 5,000 + mile trip & from the second leg till we got home I had to jump the Jeep as it was DOA on every travel day so we could use it. I had the Jeep checked when we got home & it all showed good. The charge line on the bus receptacle showed no voltage. Checked the one...
Hello all, I’m researching a flat tow behind vehicle for Class C on Mercedes 3500 EXD chassis. Due to GVWR limits I’ve narrowed down to 2015-22 Ford Fiesta manual tranny.
Has anyone had one of these, and if so, any issues I might need to know of….
Thanks in advance

Just installed an RVi3 braking system in my toad. Since it uses the car's battery to power it, has anyone run an extra cable to the toad's battery to keep it charged and prevent it from going dead from long towing days?
Almost new to us MH doesnt have the TOAD air brake connection. I read here in various threads that our Freightliner chassis will need a BrakeSync module/system to use the AirForce One setup. A number of threads state this is needed. I havent found one that has the exact part(s) required.
Is...
I read where the Lincoln Navigator with the Heavy Duty Tow Pkg is flat towable. I've always wanted a Navigator so purchased one last month. Today, I took it in to the installer that I have used in the past. He's very good and takes all of the necessary steps to ensure the best overall...
