    Looking for some advice re toad hitches etc.

    Hello everyone. In June we bought a Coachmen 32WC and love it. We have been dolly towing, but would really like to switch to a flat toad. Looked at some potential vehicles, but nothing compares to my 2016 F150 XLT Ecoboost 2WD. Found out on line that I could get a driveshaft device that would...

    4WD TOAD for Sprinter

    I have a Jeep JK 4D Hardtop, probably 4500 pounds curb weight, so too heavy to tow behind my 2016 Forester 2401. Especially since we'd like to pack some stuff in the Jeep. So am looking for options for a TOAD w/ 4WD that weighs 3500 lbs or less. Jeep Renegade and Mini prohibit TOAD. Any...

    Toad weight

    I have a Georgetown 351ds with tow rating of 5000 pounds. I'm looking at purchasing a new chevy suburban which has a curb weight of 5600 pounds. I'm sure the hitch has some leeway built in and it would probably handle it but is this a bad idea. Rolling weight vs dead weight is different and...

    Toad dolly hitch drop issue

    I’m new to motorhome driving. Traded in my 5er. I opted to buy a used dolly trailer to pull my toad. The manuel says not to use a hitch that exceeds a 4” drop. When I hitch up the trailer to the 4” drop hitch it is not level. Also the trailers tire ramps at the back are only 3” off the pavement...

    Grand Cherokee toad

    I am looking to add a JGC as my load replacing my Wrangler. I see the tow bar install is supposed to be pretty easy. What about the options that have bumper sensors or the radar in the nose? Will that cause issues?

    I have a Chev Spark and GM just changed the flat tow requirements; so I now need to get 12 volts to the car from the coach. Essentially my question is what is the best way to do that? I am wondering if the tow wiring has continuous 12 Volt source I can tap into? Thanks
