Thanks for the "welcome mat", Greg.

Is a small world indeed. Our Travco was a 1970, I believe the model #
was a 320. 30 or 32 feet long on a Dodge chassis with a big ole Dodge
440. Good engine. We carried the kids all over the U.S. in that
motorhome and never had mucxh of a problem. I pulled (backwards BTW) a
little 73 or 74, I believe, Dodge Colt (Mitsubishi) RWD which had a
hitch attached to the rear frame. I bought a winch type device which
you used to winch up the rear of the car and then let it down on the
ball which was mounted on the rear of the motorhome. As I recall, we
used bungees from the front doors to the steering wheel to prevent a
excess of castering of the front wheels.

Towed that little car thousands of miles with never a problem. Didn't
have brakes nor lights. When we traveled at night (which was very rare)
I would switch on the emergency flashers. Never got questioned nor
stopped.

Anybody remember that kind of "set-up"?
