Adapter to Flat Tow a Vehicle and Carry a Scooter at the Same Time Behind a Motorhome
Question:
Own a 2018 Winnebago Vista 29VE, flat towing a 2016 Ford Focus SE H.B. Using Blue Ox Alpha Tow Bar - Motorhome Mount - 6,500 lbs Item # BX7365. Want to know if I can use you part# D-192 to mount a scooter rack to carry a 2018 Honda scooter Options: 300 lbs. or 400 lbs
asked by: Cristhian E
Expert Reply:
Curt dual receiver # D-192 has a capacity of 350 pounds tongue weight and 3,500 pounds gross towing weight so it is not going to be the best option for flat towing your Focus while carrying a scooter at the same time.
Your best option is going to be either adapter # RM-077-4 with a 4 inch rise or drop or # RM-077-2 with a 2-1/4 inch rise or drop. Both of these adapters have a 400 pound tongue weight. So the combined weight of the scooter, its carrier, and the vehicle tongue weight, if any, would have to be under that 400 pound capacity.
