Weights ?

My enclosed trailer weighted 6500 lbs loaded.
I have not weighted the dolly and the van but I think it around 5000lbs.
Also the rear extension frame and hitch of the motorhome has been beefed by local RV shop plus the WD and electric brake controller.

Sorry don't know the weights of my stuff but, the jeep has to be around 3,000 lbs. It's flat towed.

My desert toys in and trailer have to weigh about 7,000 lbs +/-.

Seems to me that towing another vehicle behind a Class C is redundant. The `C' unhooks so easily that it could be easily taken on most of the side trips for which the towed vehicle could be used. (I could be wrong on that; my wife can tell you)
One trailering option is the Swivel Trailer at www.cruiserlift.com and possibly other sources.

The main reason is that when I get where I'm going, I get 34 mpg with the Kia, vs 8-10 with the Class C, also, I dont have to break camp every day, just to re-setup at the end of the day(which is a pain in the butt).
