toad

In the category of things that keep you up at night. Has anyone had their breakaway cable pulled on their Jeep? The cable attachment is pretty prominent on the front of the Jeep. I noticed someone looking at it in a parking lot when the motorhome wasn't attached. The ring is shinny and I'm...

Does anyone know of any other options or suggestions for flat towing a 2015 Dodge Journey other than the discontinued Remco LP1 lube pump? I was under the impression these pumps were still around, easily accessible, and most RV shops could install them on front wheel drive vehicles to allow...

I have a Sunseeker 2860 that will be towing my 2023 Ford Ranger (with keyed ignition). I've got a battery charge wire going from the center pin on the 6-pin on the Ranger front bumper to the battery, but I'm not getting any voltage when connected to the MH, which is running. When I connected the...

I have a 2021 Sunseeker 3010DS. I'm working on getting my 2021 Jeep ready to flat tow. I did this a few years ago with a 2018 Jeep but I see something new! I used the Blue Ox BX88206 Coiled cable but I wired it myself to the Jeep. Now I see this NEWSUN® Premium 4 Way Flat to 7 Blade Trailer...

We have a Thule bike rack for our electric bikes. I plan to attach it to our flat tow truck (a 4-door Jeep Sahara). Does anyone else do this? I have seen a few over the past year, but not many bike racks are on the back of a toad. I wonder if there is a reason why.:ermm:

Hello, I have a 2014 Forest River Georgetown 328 class A. Everything works when we hook up our Toad except the tail/running lights on the Toad when we turn on the coach’s headlights. **Checked fuses under the dash **Checked fuses under the hood **Put my finger on the relay under the hood when...

Anyone pulling a standard 1/2 ton pickup with your C class? The units I'm looking at are a 27' Ford 450 chassis Coachmen, 26 rs, 7,500 tow capacity, pu is 5,200 lbs. so I know on paper it should be ok, but wanted some real world feed back how rig behaves. I know lighter is better but trying to...

I don't usually go around asking people about their dinghy but in this case I'm genuinely curious. I want to look into possibly getting a little car to tow behind my 2017 3010ds. I looked it up on Google and I've seen everything from a Smart Car to a Chevy Silverado so actually making a...

Hello, I'm going to flat tow my 2023 Bronco this year and have a question on the 12 Volt trickle charge availability. Does the center contact on the 7 pin tow bar plug supply power from the RAM cab battery & alternator only when the engine is running? I installed a RoadMaster...

We are planning on purchasing a 2025 34M5 and are trying to decide on a car to get as our TOAD. We will be driving across the country and on the road for 1-2 years full-time. I was considering a Honda CR/V and using Roadmaster tow bar system, but Roadmaster doesn't seem to have anything for...

I recently “upgrade” my rv from a travel trailer to a motorhome and want to tow a vehicle. My MH is a 2020 Forest River 2441DS. E-450 triton v 10. My current vehicles are a 2018 F-150 4X4 curb weight of 6500# and a 2013 Ford C-Max hybrid curb weight 3600#. My question = which of these vehicles...

Anyone have any experience with adding a vinyl wrap around the paint of your toad? I am upgrading from our Yaris to a Toyota Tacoma, selling my Tundra :crying: and we are downsizing in life. The Tacoma will be my DD when I retire and I don't want a million rock chips on it.

I am not getting conclusive information from Progressive on this question. My TOAD hit an object on the road while be towed. The RV is wide enough it missed it. It did some damage to the wheel and exhaust of the TOAD, enough for a claim. I have $500 deductiible on both RV and TOAD and also...

Would like to tow a small toad and also take my ebike. Anyone have any insite on the dual height trailer hitches?

Im looking at new trucks i have always driven for or toyota looking at the f150 i talked to ford and they can be flat towed. But getting mixed answers from toyota. Does anyone know if i can flat tow a 2023 tundra.

I have the Curt wiring harness for my 2017 Ford Flex, it has diodes to protect the cars computer but I am using the RVI brake system so can I put diodes at the plug that goes to the RV to protect the RV lighting system. I purchased the BlueOx 4 diode kit, will this work? Or can I just put...

I’ve always used the magnetic lights for towing and decided to get a kit from etrailer specifically for my CRV. Plug and play. It was pretty easy to connect everything and run the wire. When checking all the lights, I get the brake light and turn signal, but when I put the headlights on, there...

Need some help, ideas. I have a Legacy 340KP, air supply to the brakes (M&G System) on the toad (2017 Equinox). Roadmaster 7 way to 6 way wired from the coach to the toad. Rear lights wire harness and Rvibrake Battery Charger wired from the 6 way. Plus a Roadmaster fuse bypass switch. I've...

Looking for recommendations for the best hitch and braking system to tow my Jeep Gladiator behind a Georgetown. The only one I have any familiarity with is Blue Ox. I know nothing about braking systems. Just learned recently that there was such. Thanks for advice.

Having done some research, I think I know the answer, but I’ll ask anyway. Does anyone know of 2023 electric car or small SUV models that are manufacturer approved to be flat towed behind motorhome? I know some plug in hybrid models are flat towable, but I’m asking about 100% electric cars. Not...

One simple question: Do the tires of a toad wear at the same rate as if you were driving it? M

I have a 2016 Leprechaun Class C and a 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk that I recently bought used and set up as a TOAD. I Installed blue-ox base plates and I am using blue ox tow bars. Those are all working great. I also am using a blue ox patriot brake system that plugs into the 12V car plug. I...

Hi all, I am new to the Class A but have had numerous travel trailers in the past. I need to get a Toad in place but I just can't seem to decide which way to go. I am hoping that others can provide some real world insight into which way I could go. Only looking at full trailer or flat tow...

Planning to get a Class C for the summer and acquiring/using a TOAD. I have experience camping with our TT and seen mostly Jeeps as TOADs at campgrounds. Also searched the internet and find that manual transmission cars and Jeeps are the way to go. BTW I need 5 seatbelts in the TOAD. So the 2...

Considering a used Mini with manual trans to use as a toad. It looks like the baseplate install is a bit more complex than I want to take on. For budgeting purposes, I'm wondering if anyone had any input on what it costs to install a baseplate and other parts needed.
