Hi to all,
I just read in another post about something we have NEVER seen or heard of before. It's called the "Tow-Buddy" or "Hitch-Buddy". It looks almost like a tow dolly in that it hooks to the receiver hitch, but it has a receiver for a fifth wheel on it. When I went to the web-site, I watched a video of this thing being used. It looked pretty neat, but what I found really interesting was that they showed a picture of an EXCURSION towing a fifth wheel using this thing!! Wow, let me tell you, hubby was so excited when I showed him the website! He dreams of getting into a fifth wheel again but we have an Excursion, and can in no way replace both TV and RV at the same time. If this thing is as good as it appears to be, we could find the 5'er of our dreams now, then trade for a truck later! So, does anybody know ANYTHING about this thing, have experience with it, know someone who uses one, safety of it, etc.? The only drawback we see so far is that the only place that carries them on the EAST coast are some CW's in FL, which is a little far from VA.
Thanks in advance,
LuAnn & Mike
