towing a gmc Terrain with a Ford v10 powered class a

thinking of pulling a gmc terrain with a ford v10 powered class A mh.
any thoughts or concerns I should worry about?
  • We pull a 2011 AWD Terrain with a DP. Easier than old 4-Runner tow with Remco drive shaft disconnect. Pull Terrain in neutral and pull 1 fuse turn key to where steering wheel will turn. V10 should pull it okay, but would go with tow specs. for your RV.

    You really do fly high!! Most commercial planes stay less than 40,000 feet.

  • Be sure to check the capacity of the hitch. I have the same chassis. 36 ft., my hitch is only rated for 3500 lb.

  • So I goggled GMC Terrain weight, they say around 4000 LBS. Thats good. Then I went to Romco RV Towing. They say it can be towed with speed and distance restrictions, see owners manual... Try remco for good information.
  • A terrain is a pretty small SUV, it'll pull it and you won't even know it's there. I've pulled 4 times that wieght with my F53 chassis V10...
  • Ford will pull a Chevy any day!!
    Is the Terrain towable 4 wheels down?
