    I did, had a Roadtrek with the dodge. No problems towing per say. Found that I needed to back into the water in neutral to prevent the brakes locking up. Just check your tow ratings and do not exceed.

    I just sold my Pleasure Way Lexor TS. It was a great coach. I sold it because it was to nice for what I wanted to use it for. Really, it was just to nice. I am now back in a truck camper which in my opinion is the best most versatile RV for fishing. I am happy to answer any questions you may have on the Class B. I've also owned a Class C and a previous Lance Truck Camper. I've pulled my boat behind all three.

    I have a SportsMobile built on a GMC chassis with a Duramax Diesel. I tow a 20 foot flats boat from SC to South Florida about 4 times per year tarpon fishing. It is a towing machine. The total rig is small enough to not have to unhook in any pull though camp site. It has a pop top so I can put a second bunk up top for my fishing buddy. I sleep 4 to 5 weeks a year in that rig. Absolutely love it.

    We have a Forest River Lexington 23 ft. It has the chevy 6 liter engine. I have had no problems towing at all. In fact get 11mpg with my Ranger 619 behind it. Also haven't had any ramps that I couldn't launch at. It isn't much longer in total length than what the Suburban and boat are.
