Question:
I have a 1991 Ford Tioga Class C motorhome built on a Ford E350 chassis. I would like to switch out my current Draw-Tite hitch with 250TW, 3500 trailer weight to a hitch that can carry a 550 motorcycle and 125 carrier. Can you guide me to the correct hitch for motorhome?

Hey Ginny, thanks for coming by! So with those weights it looks like you'd need a hitch with a tongue weight of 675 or higher. The only hitch we have that's close to that is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 14053 which has a max tongue weight of 1,000 lbs, and a max weight capacity of 10,000 lbs.
With this beefier hitch you'll have no problem carrying your motorcycle and the carrier! If you have any other questions, please feel free to drop a comment and let me know!
