• Flat Towing Recommendations for 2015 Honda Fit
  According to the owner's manual for the 2015 Fit, Honda doesn't recommend flat towing the vehicle. I did some research online and found that using a tow dolly like part # RM-2050-1 is the recommended method for transporting the vehicle behind a motorhome.

The tow dolly uses electric brakes, so you'd need a brake controller...

• 4-Pole Wiring Extension for Peterson Tow Light Kit PE26UR
