Don't like the way the front axle hangs and can bounce around. Looks like a lot of hardware to be mounted to the toad also.

I wonder how much weight is on the MH hitch, 2500# car so 1/2 weight would be on coach maybe more as this is the heavy end of the car. Whats the capacity of the MH hitch. Seems like a lot of work, I tow a trailer and have less to do and take care of than the demmo.

The other problem I see with this system is the front suspension components of the towed vehicle would be hanging unsupported, which they're not designed for. They're designed to support the weight of the vehicle. Whenever you went over a bumpy or rough road the wheels would be free to bounce up and down. Not a good idea IMHO.
