• Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 1999 Ford F-250 Super Duty Behind a Motor Home
  The first thing you are going to need to flat tow your 1999 ford F-250 Super Duty are base plates. The Blue Ox base plates that fit your truck are # BX2163.

• How to Tow a 2000 Chevy S10 Behind a Motor Home as Inexpensively as Possible
  There is certain equipment required by law to flat tow a vehicle. That equipment includes base plates, a tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking. If you just need to tow the 2000 Chevy S10 once or twice, the expense is likely not worth it. But if you flat tow the truck often behind a motor home then you are going to need these items. Check the S10 owners manual to see if it can be dolly towed (with the front wheels up on a dolly). If so you could rent or otherwise obtain...

  Before flat towing any vehicle you must review your owner's manual to ensure it is capable of flat towing and what steps need to be taken to get your vehicle ready to flat tow. 2WD vehicles can't be flat towed and have to instead be dolly towed with a dolly like the Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly w/ Disc Brakes - Tilt Bed Frame - 4,800lbs - Wide Tread # DM9713093.
