I got my first RV when I was 20 years old. It was a 1963 Oasis 15 footer weighing maybe 2200 pounds. I pulled it with a new 1987 Mazda B2600 4x4. To get the right hitch height I bolted a drop hitch to the step bumper. First trip over Snoqualmie Pass to Lake Chelan it went up the hill ok (45 mph) but down the other side was a wild scary ride. You could see the bumper flexing in the mirror. After that I had a receiver installed and used a WDH and it handled fine. Sometimes we learn the hard way, fortunately I didn't wreck it.
