Re: Blue Ox towing equip-need advice please

I kept my brace and sent it along with the car and the base plate to the GCs. Leaving the baseplate on the car might help with a sale or not since it's a clear indication of being towed. Ours had 80K miles and towed 100K miles. the equipment was removed from the Honda and the Honda sold, so I'm not sure what is remaining. Thank you!407Views0likes0CommentsRe: Blue Ox towing equip-need advice please

You can also check ebay and craigslist to see what they are selling for used. https://www.blueox.com/ now if only I could figure out which model - haha!

CA Traveler wrote: Half price should be quick. After identifying separate the base plate and tow bar parts. The tow bar is much easier to sell as it should work for many cars. The base plate is unique to the CRV and maybe for only a few years. Limited value if any. Appreciate the response so much!407Views0likes0CommentsRe: Blue Ox towing equip-need advice please
way2roll wrote: When you say the equipment was removed from the Forester, do you mean the tow bars? There will still be base plates on the CRV. You can have those removed and sell or just sell the tow bars. You can check on line to see what used units are going for. Are the bars Blue OX as well as the base plates? They should say somewhere on them. The base plates will be harder to find this, but the bars will have model or something - the base plates are based on the make and model of the car. Thank you so much! Yes, the equipment was removed from the RV and the Honda.407Views0likes0CommentsBlue Ox towing equip-need advice please
Thanks for any help and advice. I'm posting for a friend who lost her husband and is now camping in her 2007 Forester MTRHM model 2861. They towed a 2012 Honda CRV with towing equipment Blue Ox. She would like to sell the towing equipment. The equipment was removed from the Forester. My problem is that I cannot identify the towing equipment and have no idea what is a reasonable quick sell price to ask for her. I have pics I can share. Would appreciate any and all advice from this forum and TIA!1.2KViews0likes9CommentsRe: destination trailer advice please
thanks for the replys. Yes, we want something that doesn't move. I can't handle the traffic any longer with our FW. thanks, Barney, but 40 is way too big for us, and for our site. So, I guess we'll have to consider a TT, any advice for front kitchen and separate toilet? thanks, again!627Views0likes0Commentsdestination trailer advice please
We have found our campground for the summers and would like to trade our fifth wheel for a destination trailer about 34 feet. Need advice on models please. Front kitchen (don't like to walk into the kitchen) and front kitchen seem to have more counter space. Queen or King with nite stands each side, no other beds needed Separate toilet room No tub just standup shower Would love room for a small residential fridge but not required. Any advice would be much appreciated! Thank you! :)2.2KViews0likes13Comments
