HOw heavy is hte Subru?
Towing capacity is the lesser of two things..
1: The hitch rating,, Usually either 5,000 with 500 on the hitch or twice that, Count on the lower number if it's a gasser.
AND
The difference between the loaded for travel weight of the motor home and it's C-G-V-W (Combined Gross vehicle weight) which is hte maximum weight of the "Consist" (Tow vehicle plus trailing vehicle)
ON my gasser, that's 4,000 pounds.. Or one 1992 Chevy Lumina APV (which happens to be exactly 4,000 pounds)
Whatever you tow: Do not forget the brakes.. My choice is the US-Gear Unified Brake Decelerator but the latest from Blue Ox looks interesting if you are in a hurry and/or want a unit you can move from car to car easily. Still I don't like those box systems.
