Roadmaster Sterling, it is Aluminum and still tows 8000 Lbs. Had mine since 09 and love it. I have Muscular Dystrophy so ease of use is paramount and when I can no longer do it the Wife will have to handle it alone and she has no problems.
If you're buying new I would suggest the Sterling All Terrain. It's advertised as the lightest towbar on the market. It replaced the Sterling in 2005.
As for longevity we had a Sterling (not the newer All Terrain version) for 12+ years and well over 100,000 miles. It was destroyed when the Jeep we were towing was rear ended by a kid in a pickup truck.
We replaced it with the Sterling All Terrain and have put a nearly 30,000 miles on it with no problems. As mentioned they are available on e trailer for a reasonable price. The price includes free shipping.
