The first question is what is the weight limit your MH can tow. A limit of 3,500 pounds is common, as is 5,000 pounds. I try to stay at or below 80% of the limit in order not to stress the system. My MH has a 5,000 pound weight limit so I use a max of 4,000 pounds in my search. I ended up with a 2010 Subaru Forester (bought new in 2010). Keep in mind that a Subaru must be a standard transmission to tow. You can not tow an automatic Subaru except on a trailer. Not even on a tow dolly.
