Question:
I want to flat tow my 2020 RAM Laramie 1500. I have a 2011 Winnebago Itasca. I’m interested in the Roadmaster or Blue Ox system. What all do I need to accomplish this?

Hi Scott; to flat tow your 2020 Ram 1500 Laramie you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, wiring, safety cables, and a supplemental braking system. I tend to prefer Roadmaster over Blue Ox and I see you were already looking at the Nighthawk # RM-676 which is our most popular tow bar. Based on this I recommend the following:
-Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM-522203-5
-Roadmaster Nighthawk All-Terrain Tow Bar w/ LED Lights # RM-676 (Includes safety cables and part of wiring)
-Roadmaster Accessory Kit for Nighthawk Tow Bars # RM-9284-2 (Completes wiring, includes locks and cover)
-Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Flat Tow Brake System for RVs w/ Hydraulic Brakes # SM99251
More than likely you will also need a high-low adapter to keep your setup level. I went ahead and attached a help article below which explains how to measure, along with a link to our available high-low adapters for your reference.
