Refurbished Class C tow rating 2013 E450

I guess refurbished means making sure it works, fluids are full, and resealing the roof lines

I'm just curious what "refurbished" means..

An E450 can max out at 22000 GCWR (Combined loaded coach and towed load). Since GVWR (loaded coach) is 14500, that's your 7500. That's for the CHASSIS. The motorhome builder may have down-rated it for some reason. Typically, the "down" load on a hitch is 10-pct of the "pull" rating. 5000 hitch, 500 weight on the ball. A MoHo has a very long rear overhang, so I would not expect its "down" to be 750 even with a 7500 hitch. Such is not an issue flat towing, but it could be a limitation towing a trailer with a vehicle on it.
Problem with Nissan mini-trucks like Frontier, Xterra and Pathfinder, is that the 4WD transfer case doesn't have Neutral. So it has to be a manual transmission, in Neutral with transfer case in 2H for towing. Because of no neutral, the automatics can't be towed.

Nissan has told me our Xterra can only be towed 10 miles, otherwise, diffenterial damage can occur. We are in contact with the sales manager which has the coach on site. We have been told the 2013 and later may have s tow rating of 7500 pounds and can get a trailer which comes in under this weight :)

Class C tow ratings are usually around 5,000 lbs.
