Anybody use a Reese Towbar?
They are inexpensive and rated for a 5000 lb load. Any experiences?

I towed several different Jeeps for many years with one.
On my last Jeep I had a custom front bumper with a hoop above the winch. I could take the safety chains and tie the towbar to that hoop at the right level to just clear the ball, then using the GOAL method (Get Out And Look!) I could hook the towbar to the coach by myself with no trouble. I never encountered a problem unhooking that towbar. I wish I could say that about my current telescoping Roadmaster bar!
It is amazing what one can do with a little creative thinking!
