towing

My stabilizer jacks have a tendency to drop down while I’m towing down the road. My solution is to bungee them in the up position on travel days. This tends to be a time consuming endeavor when trying to get out of the rv park in a timely manner and my knees are not too happy either. I saw...

We have an automatic 2014 MINI Cooper S Convertible and, when we move up to a Class A, we would like to dolly-tow it. We've seen a couple of YT videos but they were using older dollies; we'd like some more recent feedback. Are you towing your MINI Cooper on a fairly modern dolly? If so, we have...

Hello, My family going to pick up 1970ESP in 2 weeks. Before that I am setting up wiring for break light and electric break system. Towing vehicle is Toyota Sienna Hybrid and its towing capacity is 3500 lbs. We usually go 2 adult and 2 young child. My biggest concern is that towing with mini...

Has anyone dolly towed a Chevy Spark? Clearance between the shock tower and tire is minimal. The adjustable Tow master straps are difficult to secure without wearing against the tower. If anyone is aware of better straps I would appreciate the info. Thanks.

Hello! We are now proud owners of our FIRST travel trailer. We bought a Grey Wolf 29TE. We take delivery this Saturday! YAY! With all of the excitement, I am getting many people that say our trailer is too long! Yikes. So, I obsessively researched towing capacities and such. We are...

Good day Forum fans, Sorry for the long post - tried to add all the info I could to kick start this thread. :) I need advice this morning from our forum friends... Issue: Hauling our RadPower Electric Bikes while towing our toad using the PaddyWagon. This is our nickname for the Leprechaun...

Hello fellow campers! We put a down payment on a 2023 Apex 208DHS at the Hershey RV show yesterday. Now, we’re a little concerned about the weight and our ability to tow it. We have a 2020 AWD Honda Pilot. I called the dealer to find out if they can add the radiator cooler, and they can add it...

Hello all! We have this Toy Hauler on order and expecting to pick up in about a month or so. I'm new to RV'ing and only rented TT so far. I'm wanting to get feedback about this trailer behaves with a 3/4 ton truck and the need for W/D hitch. I know that's a complicated question based on...

So I didn't pay attention to the specs and proceeded with the great idea only to get to the end and realize that I probably shouldn't do that...... We traded our Rockwood in on a 2008 Georgetown in December of 21'. Given that we didn't need the pulling power of the Silverado 2500 and the...

Looking for help. My 7 pin cord got pulled out of the junction box at the pin box. I’m pretty good at electrical / trailers etc but inside the box on the trailer side is mostly white wires, and a bunch of different coloured ones. I have tried for the life of me to figure it out but am at a loss...

All, Could not seem to find info on this. I am researching Toads and the Chevy Equinox states the battery must be charged while towing. We are looking to have a Blue Ox system installed, Obviously I have no idea how it works but Im sure there needs to be power run. Is it possible to...

I just bought this older blue ox towing system that came with a bike rack and there are 2 things I don’t know what they are or what they are for…. See pics… thanks for any help!

Howdy all, I’m a new owner of a forrester 2861. Brand new, lots of goodies to discover. My question relates to towing a car. I have researched dolly, 4down, etc. I have two cars that we are considering. A 2002 Mini Cooper and a 2016 Subaru Outback. My first preference is the mini on a dolly. The...

Interesting observations from Mike on current and future use of EV vehicles for towing trailers: https://www.rvtravel.com/rv-electricity-towing-camper-trailer-with-ev-truck-practical-rvt-1064/

This article popped up in my messaged this morning. https://www.motortrend.com/reviews/ford-f150-lightning-electric-truck-towing-test/amp/ "You won't be as surprised to learn that the towing range of the electric F-150 is dismal. In MotorTrend testing, an F-150 Lightning Platinum saddled with...

We saw this a little while ago. I would really like to know the rest of the story...how far, what was the towing capacity, etc. Someone had a bad day.

When towing, does the tow vehicle charge the 12V battery(ies)? Have a 2021 Surveyor and having trouble keeping the Norcold 12V fridge out of trouble codes Thanks

All, Just curious what kind of TOADS folks are towing. I want to get a new pickup truck and I am considering the F-150 Super Crew 4x4. thanks.

I have a 2018 F150 and would like to have 12v+ going to the battery while driving. What do I have to do? Dealership says plug is working but it doesn't provide any juice. Check the fuse and it's okay Going to a different dealership but thought I would ask.

I'm nervous to post any questions about tow capacity and tongue weight, but better safe than sorry! I'm driving a 2010 Toyota Highlander, with tow kit, and addd stabilizer/weight distribution system. We're towing a Salem Lite RBXL171 (Dual axel, dry weight 4082) A recent 7 hour highway road...

Does anyone have any tips for making the ride smoother on bumpy highways and blacktops? These are roads that are already uncomfortable even when the camper isn't attached, but almost jar your teeth when it is. Tow vehicle is a 2022 Ram 2500 6.4 Hemi, camper is a 2021 Salem Hemisphere 273RL...

Ok, this is going to sound really weird, but we are going to be towing a 22’ pontoon boat behind our motorhome in a couple weeks. We used to tow a 18’ speedboat behind our old motorhome with no issues, but our new coach is 2’ longer and the pontoon trailer is a few feet longer. Anyone ever...

I got a 2019 land rover discovery Hse lux TD6 with a 7700lbs max towing and 770 hitch weight I was wondering if I would be capable of towing this length seems alright and weight is well within rating. I need more experienced opinions

Just got our Entrada 2900 and wondering how it does towing a vehicle on a flatbed trailer? Does anyone know!
