Pretty much that's the question. I have a 2013 Winne View 24J, v6 turbo diesel. Would like to have some sort of toad so the bride and I can leave the campgrounds on occasion. I really don't want to pull anything because I can get into most shopping centers with no problem and I believe that would change drastically if even a tow dolly was added. The tongue weight limit is 500 lbs. The scooter I am considering is under 300 lbs. I would guestimate the ramp and platform of the receiver hitch mount carrier to weigh in at about 60 lbs. The MC salesman suggested that it would be more than the sum of it's parts because it stands about 18 in. behind the hitch and thus would exert leverage on the hitch. Tom over at Winni said the 500 lbs is vertical weight on the hitch but didn't think a 350 lb. payload would be a problem. Any experience greatly appreciated.
