I am confused as I checked at CW and was told installation is about $3500. for what they said I needed.

I am not cheap, but thrifty as I saw tow dolly's on Ebay for around $500. What else do I need to complete a tow package, and how should I start and what are my possibilities. All and any input is acceptable I am not sensitive to good and bad comments as I am an Insurance salesman.

There are other places than Camping World to buy towing equipment. I just brought a brand new Ready Brute tow bar on ebay for just over $500. It replaced a Blue Ox Aventa LX which I bought brand new on ebay for about $400. I bought the base plate on ebay for just under $300 and had my neighbor install it. He owns a body shop. Only charged me $100 for installation. Took about a hour and a half installation. He gave me some electrical wire to make up my pigtail to hook up lights on the back of the car, which I installed my self. For supplemental brakes, I picked up a Ready Brake system on one of the motorhome forums that has classified. Got it for the price of shipping. Lets see, that is about $2500 less than what you were quoted, but I had to do some hunting around and a bit of labor to boot!

You can also get some really good deals at http://www.hitchtrader.com/. It is a towing buying and selling classified site operated by Blue Ox. They always have good stuff for sale on there, even new stuff. Even tow dollies now and them.
