toad

I have a 2011 Berk 390QS, 340 Cummings, 2500 Allision and I am looking for the Gross Combination Weight Ratio (GCWR) which would be the maximum weight for the coach and TOAD combination. It is not on any of the coach stickers. Sent an email to Randy at FR and he told me that my front axle is...

Is anyone out there toading a Cadillac SRX AWD? I was looking at the Blue Ox site and it talks about trimming the bumper and having to remove 3 fuses when towing. Is this a difficult vehicle to outfit and tow? Sent from my iPhone 'cause I'm probably out in the RV!

My back of the envelope math on using a TOAD assuming I have a towable car: 4000 miles per year, extra gallon of gas for towing every 100 miles 40*$2.50= $100 4000 miles per year, car wear and tear for towing $0.10 per mile 4000*0.10 = $400 Assume 7 year life of Tow Dolly and Brake Buddy...

It looks like Elio Motors is just about ready to go into production. Their trike car is on the top of my list as a toad for long-stay trips. At 1200 lbs dry weight, it can be flat towed by a Class B, B+ and beyond. At at starting price of $6800 it's a deal, even without an RV. Up to 84 MPG isn't...

Looking for some advice on pulling my F150 behind my 2016 Georgetown 364ts with the Ford V-10. Is this too much truck for the V10 engine with the 6 speed transmission?

Ok...pick up motorhome next week and trading my big bad F250 diesel in, which means I need a vehicle to drive to work. Since im buying that, I figure I might as well get something that can be a toad for our new 364TS at the same time. Im going the cheap route, but need to haul 6 people and...

Has anyone towed a Mini Cooper? I have a 2016R. Dogpa

Is anyone flat towing a smart for2 car? Your experiences and thoughts would be much appreciated.

We just ordered a new Forester MBS 2401S and are looking for a small hatchback car to tow. Ideally something 2009 or newer which is set up for towing. Best fit is a lightweight vehicle like a Mini Cooper, Kia Soul or Honda Fit, but we are open to others. Please pm me Thanks, Joel

I saw a post with pictures of other campers towing their rigs and thought it might be neat and helpful to get a thread with pictures of our Georgetown's pulling TOADS. It might be helpful to list your components and how they are working for you. Our setup is a 2012 as in our signature. Our TOAD...

May i pull a jeep wrangler unlimited with a Georgetown 33.7DS workhorse GM 8.1 Sent from my iPhone JP using Forest River Forum

We're looking at purchasing a new(ish) Silverado 1500 to tow four down with our Sunseeker 3170DS. Just talked to my RV guy, whom I trust very much and he mentioned the new 1500's are needing to disconnect the negative on the battery before towing and have been giving them some issues...

I posted a request on Sunseeker but I know there is a bigger audience on general Motorhome Ours is a standard shift '07

I saw the downloaded toad guides on the other thread and no mention of Mini's I know I've seen them out on the road but was wondering about specific years,models and experience etc. (ours is an '07 Cooper manual) (that's a straight drive for my Southern friends HaHa) Looks like I may inherit...

HI, My wife and I are undecided about which car to buy. We will be using it as our flat tow vehicle. We have a 2013 sunseeker 3120 DS with the standard v10 engine. We can't decide between a loaded 2013 Ford Edge Limited (4,000 to 4,500lbs.) or a 2014 Honda cr-v EX-L (3,300 t0 3,500lbs.) It will...

Does anybody know the snow chain requirements on a toad if and when you have to chain up? Thanks for the feedback.

Hello All, We decided to keep the old 2008 370 xl. We did a lot of upgrades to it and it's running great after a few fixes. Now we are in the market to by a toad, but I can't find the max weight my RV could pull. Could someone point me to an online manual please or if you have a picture of...

Well I sold a tractor today and am now looking to spend my money! I have a 2010 freelancer that I believe has a 5000# towing capacity. My current vehicles won't work so I'm looking for a dedicated toad. I've always liked a Jeep Wrangler but what you get for the money is outrageous. I've also...

We just picked up a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited for a Toad. What are other Wrangler owners doing to protect the paint and windshield from rock damage while underway? Paul

No irritating loud down shifts! Just returned to Florida from Main. First long road trip without a toad and what a difference. Cruised up steep hills like they were not there. Acceleration was great and stopping much easier. Had to guard against speeding. Obviously the V10 is programed to...

Looks like MB has updated the Smart quite nicely for 2016, due out later this fall. Best of all there is a new 5 spd manual tranny standard for easy Toading. More HP and Torque as well. New optional 6 spd automatic but not sure if it is Toadable. Looks better, too. new smart cars. future...

Has anyone had issues with the alignment in their toad (2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited)? I noticed this morning that my alignment is off and I'm going to have it corrected today. Didn't know if this was just coincidence or if this happens frequently.

Recently purchased a 2016 Forest River Sunseeker 3100SS - will be pulling 2007 Honda CRV with Blue Ox Alpha. Finished 4 hour base plate installation in 11 hours. Found Blue OX instructions a little lacking. Moving on to Blue OX bulb wiring kit and am kind of lost on where to install bulb/socket...

What do you all think this could be? The tire temp on my toad has 1 tire that is consistently hotter than the rest. When cold the Temps and pressures are all uniform but right now on the road the Rears are even at 95 deg and 40psi, but the front driver is 100@40 and the passenger is 113@40...

I know we have a trailer but was looking for a flatbed truck that would be able to carry this and tow the trailer. Kind of an old smart car gets 30 mpg and can be fixed with a screw driver and a crescent wrench. No fancy electronics and almost 50 yrs old and still going strong. We've actually...
