Cost to Outfit for Dinghy Towing
I'm looking into outfitting my Class B+ Phoenix Cruiser and 2010 Chevy Malibu for 4 wheels down towing. For the tow assembly, modifications to Malibu, and a braking system I was quoted $6,000. Quote ...

I posted this answer elsewhere on another topic. We just set up our tow system for a CRV at a Blue Ox recommended dealer in Arizona. It cost us about $3800 for the system including parts, labor and taxes. This included the following costs:
1. Blue Ox base plate ($420)
2. Wire harness and cords ($160)
3. SMI Stay and Play Duo braking system ($1090). We had the installer mount the brake light inside of the coach.
4. Fuse Master fuse disconnect to disable the recommended CRV fuse while towing ($75)
5. Blue Ox Avail tow bar ($900)
6. Drop hitch ($64)
7. Labor ($880) and Tax ($230)
$6000 seems really high.
