Flat Towing

I have a 2005 30' Gulf Stream Ultra SE I have never towed anything on the back. I currently own a car that I'm reading can be towed - Isuzu Ascender 2005. Does anyone have an opinion on that? Also, if I can tow it can anyone recommend what (tow) name brand is the best to put on the RV? I know I need something additional for the braking also - any suggestions there would be greatly appreciated.
Also, if anyone knows where I can get this done in the South Jersey area - I'd like that info also.
Thanks for your help in advance.

    I also used blue ox and brake buddy. you will hear whining on braking systems that the BB isn't proportional. it worked fine for many years.

    I have Blue Ox and a Brake Buddy. Been using them for 11 years.
    Good stuff. Would do it again.
    Kathy, check with your local RV dealer. They should be able to help you out.
    Had mine all installed by my dealer. They did a good job.

    Might visit some RV parks and ask the folks there. RVers are all willing to share.
    Also read your car's manual about towing behind RV.
