Seting up new 2014 CRV for towing
I am looking at a new CRV. Has any one talked the dealer into doing the base plate install and wiring to make it ready to tow? If you didn’t do the work then who did you get to do the work?
Thanks

- Check out your local Camping world. They have installed 1000s of them.
They did an excellent job for me and you can often get the package on sale. - I once had a Honda dealer include the installed base plate included in the sales contract. This dealer had just installed a base plate for the dealership owner and I figured what was good enough for the owner was good enough for me. Well they outsourced the work to a local RV repair business.
- I went to a Blue Ox authorized installer, who also sells and maintains utility trailers. Blue Ox will tell you who is authorized and close to your location. On my 2002 CRV dealer wouldn't touch base plate. Didn't even ask on 2012.
- I would rather have an RV service place experienced in this task do the work than a Honda dealer who has never done it.
