Honda Fit (2500lbs) flat towed behind a class A motorhome will be just fine and I see no weight issues, its only pulling the car not carrying the car, almost zero tongue weight..
But a 1985 motorhome "motor and transmission" might have a problem with the extra pulling weight.
That's exactly what I was afraid about! Can I get a rig like that to stop in an emergency situation? I guess not ... hence a need for supplemental brakes. Still leaves the problem of (surely) being over the Mfg recommended GCWR. The insurance will have a field day if the worst happens, supplemental brakes or not. Maybe my dream ends here and back to a TT or Fiver it goes. I always liked the Airstreams but they also demand a well sized tow vehicle.
Weight is not the issue as to the class A, I was referring to the old carburetor motor and transmission can it handle more towing weight, you can by installing headers, performance carb and a stronger torque convertor in transmission, it can be done.
