Any pull a toad with a View, Navion or Solera?

Wondering if anyone pulls a toad with one of these small motorhomes? Possibly a Honda CRV? How well does it pull? How well does it stop? I have an exhaust break on my Monaco that is essential with large hills. The small ones here do not. So is it a nightmare are going down a steep pass?

Thanks for any comments.

    Lots of folks tow behind them. I tow a 2000 Tracker behind mine. I have an RVi Brake. No issues descending....I just drop down to the appropriate gear. I came down a 14% descent on Utah 12 in that config. I won't say I enjoyed it as I'd never made a descent like that EVER in an RV but it was fine. It had my undivided attention all the way down. I go over our major local pass (Snoqualmie) at about 50 when pulling the toad. I try to take it easy. I'm still passing all the tractor trailers and running with all the other loaded RVs.

    Lot of people we have known in our WIT club tow with these. The newer ones have a 5000 pound tow rating some of the early ones has 3500 pound tow rating.
