Currently have a motorhome, but when I DID tow a TT,(2 of them) I had two towing vehicles:
1- a 1986 full size Ford Bronco with a 302 and a towing package. It did OK...just OK.
2- a 1996 Ford F-150 XLT with a 351 (5.8)with a 7000 pound towing package and a 3:55 rear. SO much better than the Bronco. Load the 750 pound Harley in the bed, hooked up the TT...the truck did it all with seemingly little strain.
Both TT were 22 feet long and 4000 pounds. Keep in mind tho, what I had was a weekender, 2 weeks at the most setup. Full timers...different needs.
