Yea!! Looks like you have about 6" lifts, if so you'll need a riser into the receiver on your "C" class to get the tow bar level. Also looks like you have automatic front hubs, if so I'm pretty sure you'll need to change to manual to tow four down. The weight is not at all too much for the Coach but you will still need a Base Plate of some kind and a breaking system.
Other than color and everything else it just the same as mine.
