I have been using a Falcon 5250 for over seven years and so far no problems.

Roadmaster Falcon 2 ALL TERRAIN. I have the Roadmaster Falcon 2 and sometimes it is hard to disconnect on uneven ground.

We have a 5250 and after 20K miles towing the only negative is it can be hard to unhook if not on level ground.

We previously used the Falcon and found disconnecting sometimes difficult. We now use the Blue Ox Aventa II which works well.

I also have the 5250 and overall very good towbar but i must agree if MH and tow are'nt level it can be a problem to get the pins out.. Keep everything clean and lubed and it will make a difference !

I did not like the large, heavy bracket of my Roadmaster that had to be stored when not towing. I also switched to Blue Ox, much easier to connect and disconnect and nothing to store but 2 small couplings.

We have used ours for 9 years and the only thing I would say is the unhooking when unlevel or on a grade. We carry a rubber mallet in the rear compartment and 1 light swat releases it a lot easier than using the palm of my hand. I don't consider that much of a problem. I have many hammers.
