Towing
Ernie,

Is your towing setup the "factory setup" or did you have it altered? I'm just
wondering because the owners manual/documents for m 82 list the towing rated at
7500 lbs, not 10,000 lbs. I realize they could have upgraded it from one year
to the next, but that would surprise me a little considering 83 was only the
second year of the pushers.

82 PT40

I tow a 1 ton van full of tools on a flatbed car hauler. My coach is rated at
10,000 pounds and I'm close to that. Mike Kane tows his 1 ton Chevy pickup 4
down.

> Anyone towing a Dodge Ram 2500 quad cab 4x4 8' bed diesel PU or similar type
vehicle 4 wheels down? Weighs in at 6000 lbs empty, has been set up to for
towing using Roadmaster towbar rated at over 8ooo lbs. Was originally intended
to be towed by 2004 Winnebago Journey 32' diesel pusher, a task Winnebago sales
people gauranteed was capable of. Winnebago is too short, too light and Dodge
too heavy, steering too stiff, result an unsafe combination. Are any 3-axel 40'
Bluebird diesel pushers safely capable of such a task?
