I am missing out on have a car to use when out in Motorhome. I have towed a small car with an A frame until recently and plan to maybe use a trailer in the future, especially in countries where an A frame. Is not accepted (Germany and Spain).
My query concerns the towing limits for Motorhomes.
My Motorhome,for example, has a gross mass of 5 Tonnes with a gross train mass of 6 Tonnes. Therefore, it can only pull a trailer of 1Tonne. To add to the equasion, it has a towing limit of 1.5 Tonnes. This figure can only be applied at a cost of losing 500kg of payload...
Are these figures fairly consistent with other Motorhomes? If so, It would seem that most are going over legal weights when towing a car with a trailer.
