Roadmaster Tow Bar Recommendation
Question:
Hello I would like to know your recommendations on using a Tow Master 5000 lb. rated tow bar to tow behind a 1994 Frontier flyer class C Motor home . And is it possible to go beyond the 45 mile an hour recommended speed limit without causing any problems ort would you not recommend that type of tow bar in this scenario. I have not purchased anything yet but wanted to inquire because we wont be using it to frequently for any real long trips. Do you recommend to be towed from the rear or the front of the car because it is a front wheel drive. Thank You All for your response,

I can't ever recommend you exceed the speed rating for a tow bar. If you need to travel faster than 45 miles per hour you would want to go with a different setup.
The Roadmaster Falcon part # RM-520 is a very popular option that would work very well for you. This is one of the nicest tow bars as it has non-binding arms that will make connecting and disconnecting on unlevel ground possible. Other tow bars will bind up unless the towed vehicle is perfectly level and straight behind the vehicle.
I attached a review video for this tow bar as well as a help article on flat towing.
