It is a bit more complex. If you go the auto transport (car trailer) will mean that the tongue weight will be much higher on the motorhome's hitch. Many smaller motorhomes are rated at 5,000# with 500# of tongue weight. Finding an auto transport plus car that is less than 5,000# is difficult. Even units that have 10,000# hitches require weight distributing setups. It can also be much more difficult to stay under the GCWR with a trailer vs. flat towing.
