Hey Dennis. To flat tow your 2024 Chevy Colorado Trail Boss you will need the following parts:

Tow Bar and Safety Chains - etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plates item # e74ZR

Base Plate Kit - Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms item # RM28GR

Battery Disconnect - Roadmaster Battery Disconnect with Switch item # RM-766

Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267

Charge Line - Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles item # RM-156-25

Supplemental Braking System - Curt RVi Series Shadow 2 Flat Tow Brake System - Wireless Monitor item # RVI94FR for a permanently installed system or the Curt RVi Series 4 item # RVI44FR if you're interested in a portable setup.

Please note that the Shadow 2 braking system item # RVI94FR includes a charge line. You will not need item # RM-156-25 if you purchase this one.

High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.
