Hi Scott,

We do need to choose a year so let's go with the 2021 Chevy Spark, and I'll go ahead and list out every part needed for you to flat tow it:

- Base Plate Kit: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-523202-5

- Tow Bar: Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-522

- Safety Chains # RM-645

- Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit # RM26FR

- Roadmaster Battery Disconnect # RM-766

- Supplemental Braking System - Motorhome with HYDRAULIC BRAKES: Demco Stay-IN-Play DUO Braking System # SM99251
OR
Motorhome with AIR BRAKES: Demco Air Force One Braking System # SM99243

- Towed Vehicle Battery Charge Wire Kit for Demco Supplemental Braking Systems # DM66VR

That's a lot of parts, but all are needed (except, of course, the braking systems - you'll just choose one based on how your motorhome brakes). These are mostly Roadmaster parts, and you're getting the highest quality with these, from the tow bar to the wiring.

The exception to that are the Demco braking systems, as they are preferred as they are proportional for the smoothest braking. So when you hit the brakes on your motorhome, your Spark is going to get the same amount of braking power.

Finally, to protect your Chevy from rocks and other debris hitting it while you are flat towing, I highly recommend a rock guard, the Roadmaster Tow Defender Protective Screening # RM-4750.
