Most RVs, even really big, expensive ones like Newell or Foretravel, would be at hazard of sudden loss of control in emergency with as much as 5000 pounds towed. Check the towing specs carefully before deciding, since death is so darned permanent.
Hi Carl,

Thank you very much for your input. Being a man of "moderate means" the Ikon, and other expensive RV options, can't be considered unless my lottery ticket hits .

The lessening, or loss, of control in an emergency is also a "grave"() concern for me.

Valuable input. Many thanks.
