Welcome to etrailer David,
Congrats on the Class A Winnebago!! Have you been able to take it out on its first trip yet?
You can flat tow your 2024 Chevy Tahoe as long as it is the 4 wheel drive model. You will want to double check your owner's manual to make sure you follow the correct flat towing procedure. Also, you did not mention if yours is a Z71. If it is, please let me know so I can adjust a couple of the parts if needed.
Here is the setup I would recommend:
Base Plate: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit with Removable Arms # RM59VR
Tow Bar: Roadmaster Nighthawk All-Terrain Tow Bar with LED Lights 8,000 lbs # RM-676
Road Debris Protection: Roadmaster Tow Defender Protective Screen for Towed Vehicles # RM-4750
Wiring:
If you have LED tail lights use Roadmaster Smart Diode Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights # RO44FR
If you have incandescent bulbs use # RO94FR
Battery Disconnect: Roadmaster Battery Ace Battery Disconnect with Key Fobs Gas Only # RM39ZT
Brake Light Switch: Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit # RM79ZR
Charge Line Kit: Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-156-25
Braking System: Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Braking System for RVs with Hydraulic Brakes Wireless Monitor Proportional # DM86VR
Most likely you will need a high low adapter to keep everything level while towing. I attached an image showing where the base plate sits once installed. On level ground, measure from the ground to the center of the base plate arms on the Tahoe. Then measure from the ground to the inside top of the receiver on your Winnebago. Once I have those two measurements I can recommend the correct adapter for you.
I also attached a really helpful article called "Must-Have Flat Towing Components." It is a great read whether you are brand new to flat towing or just need a refresher. I included some install and review videos as well so you can see what the setup involves. If you decide you would rather have someone else handle the install, I also included our Dealer Locator to help you find a shop near you.
Did you have a camper before this one and get a bigger one, or is this your first one?
