car for towing
Hi. I have a 31 ft class A moho and I need to get a car to tow. It will have to be a used car. What do you suggest for a good towable car?

before you buy anything you'd be very wise to know and understand your moho's actual axle weights (as loaded for a typical trip), your axle weight ratings and the weight of the car and dolly and trailer if you don't plan to flat tow.
in general, the maximum amount of weight you can safely tow will be the lesser of the following:
- the GCWR (gross combination weight rating) of the MH minus the actual weight of the MH as it is loaded for travel (includes fuel, fresh water, food, clothing, people, pets, supplies, etc.)
- the weight rating of your tow bar
- the weight rating of your hitch
