We just got a new TV (Honda Ridgeline. We pull a 2007 Jayco 1206 and bikes. I am trying to talk my husband into a dual hitch. I know they carry 4000lbs. I don't think that is a problem as it is a pretty good sized truck and a small pop-up. Any reviews? Where should we go to buy one?

It is a great idea if you want a rack + a tow as long as the tow has enough clearance (especially if you turn sharply) and the truck will handle the total weight.

Looks to me like it would be a lot safer to add a bike rack to the tongue of the trailer.
