First, Suz, three words:

OK, Towing... I'll join the group suggesting Ready Brute. I usually call it "Night Shift Auto" and you see "NSA" on their webpages. Same outfit.
It's MoHo-mounted towbar, in lightweight aluminum, about as easy as hookup gets. And their braking system requires only a hook where you're already connecting the towbar. You'll come up with tricks. Offhand, I was thinking of poking a stake in the ground, or a little pole on a base. Learn where it has to be for your car to be well enough centered on the MoHo, and within the right distance range, that you'll know the towbar will connect once you get out to do it.
Please develop checklists and use them every time. That way you won't be driving off with Antenna Up, Jacks Down, Shore Tie connected, Toad in Gear or Parking Brake On, Toad Ignition Key Wrong, etc. etc.
I see many women who RV solo. You can do it and you can find others who do too. No doubt there are groups you could throw in with for both support and enjoyment.
