Towing With Motorhome

Yesterday I passed a huge DP pulling a new silverado. Then in the bed of the silverado was a nice Goldwing motorcycle. Hopefully one day I will look that cool. What a fun way to travel.

What do you guys pull or have seen pulled behind a motorhome?

When boondocking in the desert of Quartzsite, AZ the best we've seen was a sailboat complete with lobster traps. We talked to the owner who was a full-timer (who carry all their worldly possessions with them) who said he hasn't used it in 8 years but "maybe someday"!! It was loaded with all kinds of 'treasures' - deep sea fishing poles, BBQ, regular hard chairs tied in, firewood, etc.

Drive a nice big Diesel Puller with a GMC Sierra toad with a Harley Davidson Ultra Classic in the bed.

Country Coach towing an enclosed trailer with an unlimited fuel dragster inside and a full machine shop, saw it at a rest stop. The owners(who btw owned an RV dealership) daughter drove/piloted the dragster.
Both the Cummins engine and the Allison transmission had been modified to tow the load.

Check out the HDT groups if you want to see some impressive pulling.

One guy at the rally I was just at had a custom built trailer with 2 ATV's, large side x side and his pick up.
