Parts Needed to Dinghy/Flat-Tow a 2019 Chevy Colorado
Question:
I have purchased a 2019 Chevrolet Colorado 4x4 to use as a toad behind a motorhome I just purchased 2022 Thor Challenger. What equipment with part numbers are needed for a complete setup? I plan on obtaining a Brake Buddy system so I am not interested in a Stay-IN-Play. Thank You
