Nice setup. Can't go wrong with Superhitch. We flat tow a Jeep Grand Cherokee using a 48" extension behind our Lance 1181 on a Dodge DRW with no problems and handles great. Good Luck!

I see no reason what so ever for a $500 super truss for flat towing.

No offense, but some of us get pleasure from doing it right. You can't beat a Torklift Super Hitch and Super Truss.
