Do it right the first time. I bought a Coachmen Clipper that the dealer told me I could tow with my V-6 Rav. Dry weight was 3000. We made one trip with it and had no problem towing or stopping it but didn't feel comfortable going over 50 mph. I am now stuck with $700.00 worth of hitch parts and Prodigy brake controller that I can't use because we ended up buying an F-150 with the ecoboost six cylinder rated to tow 9400 lbs. After that we decided to buy the camper we wanted in the first place that weighs 5500 dry. So now the WDH they sold me is to light duty for the new camper and the truck has an integrated brake controller. This is example of how not to do it. Just sayin....
