Weight question.... Jeep GC Trailhawk
Looking to flat tow an 18 Hemi JGC Trailhawk, curb weight is 5000 lbs or so. Looking at gas Class C's with Chevy 4500 or Ford E450 chassis. Towing limit is usually 5000 pounds on Chevy, 7500 pounds on...

As seen in my signature picture, our E350-V10 with a 158" wheel base and measures less than 24 feet long with 5000 hitch tows our 4400 Liberty very nicely. I do have a rear trac bar installed on the E350 and do not notice the tow vehicle except when accelerating. The tow brake makes stopping better than if not towing the Liberty. The Liberty helps slow down the motor home very effectively.
A 5000 tow vehicle towed with a 5000 rated hitch is just fine being right at the limit. But don't be filling up your tow vehicle with firewood as we sometimes do ;)
