Most Popular Fits Roadmaster Base Plates - Direct Connect for 2016 GMC Terrain

This tow bar is a beast! I'm replacing my existing one (same model) after over 20,000 miles of pulling a Jeep Cherokee behind a class A motorhome. It has taken a beating on a trip to Alaska and back to Texas, including an incident where the wind blew me off the road and put the Jeep on 2 wheels. A frost heave that bent the RV Tow receiver but not the tow bar. As well as a car driving into the back of the Jeep while I was towing at 65 mph. Can't say enough about the quality and durability of this product!

Excellent product. Towing 4 door Jeep Wrangler Sport.

The product works great. I love all the light features on it. Easy install and easy of use. Using the product with my RV and Jeep Gladiator.

The Nighthawk tow bar is very nice and easy to hook up. However, the electrial connection from "Towed" to Coach exits the left side of the tow bar and crosses under the receiver to connect to the Coach socket which is on the right side of the receiver. This causes the electrical cable to get tangled with the safety cables. It seems as though there should be separate parts for coaches with right or left connectors. I moved my Coach connector to the left side of the receiver to eliminate the tangle of the electrical cable with the safety cables. The tow bar is easy to connect and disconnect and store. Mine connects to the Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier receiver which works well. I did have one incident where the electrical cord was somehow severed which meant that I had no operating supplemental brakes and no "Towed" lights. I did not know when it happened or how it happened. There should be some alarm when a disconnect occurs. I found the problem only because I stopped for a break and inspected everything. Since my "Towed" is very light and I did no hard braking, I did not notice the loss of supplemental brakes.

First, received the package and upon opening, found that the linch pins were missing. One phone call and issue was resolved and replacement items were being expedited to me. Appears the box came open on one end during shipment and parts came out before carrier retaped the tear. Good on E-Trailer for outstanding and prompt customer service! Now, the Sterling All Terrain towbar - very impressive unit as I had bought this on reputation only as no dealers had any in stock (they say it is too costly to carry in store). Very well made, excellent finish and welds. Instructions are quite clear and easy to follow. I like that when you purchase this unit, it is a “total package”. There is nothing I could see that is cheaply made - all quality. This was my first purchase from E-trailer, and based on how this order went start to finish, and having to deal with missing parts on an order - I am very pleased and will deal with them in the future.

Excellent service from etrailer.com. Their web site is all about helping with the purchase and the installation. The follow up after the sale is a nice touch as well. The All Terrain non-binding Freedom Latch is an important improvement in the RoadMaster Sterling model. I had an older model and almost always had to fight with the release when trying to unhook the towed car.

This is one of the best, two items I purchased of about 6 or 7 items acquired to rig my 2001 GMC YukonXL for flat towing. The 10,000 lb capacity is valued. the tow bar slides work well. the 3/4inch pins are strong and I have had no problems. The tow bar pulls a YukonXL with some extra stuff, fuel and tools and weighs probably 6,500 lbs (my est--haven't put it on a CAT scale). When I rig my 2020 Chev Silverado Trail Boss to flat tow, I expect to be able to use this.

Easy to install in place of an old Falcon towbar. As you can see in the photo it can be rotated to the side and latched in place. I needed this feature as we carry two electric bikes above the towbar. looking foward to not needing a rubber hammer to release the tension on the bars.

The wiring kit for the tow base kit was very well engineered and works very well. The videos for installing the base plate we're awesome step by step process and was very easily accomplished by someone with just a wrench and a drill and a few tools.

Would have gave it a full 5 stars if it would have actually fit into the receiver. Tried both my extension receiver and the OEM 2 inch receiver. Would not budge. Had to grind off the powder coating and then some. Now I need to then repaint to prevent rusting. I would have returned this if I didn’t need it now. Better quality control is needed on the e trailer brand. Guess I know it won’t rattle, lol. Buy a mainstream brand.
