Hitch?
We have a 3000 lb. Pop Up and we just drop the trailer on the ball and hook the chains and the plug and we are done. What do I need for my class 5 hitch to pull a Trailmore?

Class 5 hitch sounds like it might be a pretty stout TV... at least for a Trailmanor

Yes, it does. I think enough questions were asked to give an accurate answer.

I agree. I was just thinking out loud with my comment, hoping the OP would jump back in and give more specifics. I think the OP might still be in the pre-purchase info gathering mode as far a Trailmanor goes.

We have a 2014 GMC Acadia and I will need sway protection. We travel all over the USA. We just got back from a 4 week trip with a pop up. When I pulled a 33' travel trailer with my 3/4 ton truck I had a Hensley Arrow hitch it was the best. But for the Acadia it would kill it. I was reading about bull cams but know nothing about it. We have seen deadly crashes with RV's and we saw a very bad one in Texas. I do not want a cheap one just to get by with but one that will work when needed. This trailer is a 2007 3124KS and I am not sure I can pull it. My pop up was 3000 lbs and you never knew it was back there. Plus I will only go 65 MPH max that is it. Tires are not made for speed! I have to say I have gotten more information from this Owners page than anywhere! The Company is no help at all.

You will need a vehicle that will tow 5k lbs, a seven pin connector for tow lights, electric brakes, and you may need a weigh distribution hitch depending on your vehicles tongue weight capacity.
good luck.

We pull our 2720 with our sienna minivan that is rated at 3500 with no wdh. We use a WDH which brings us just under the tow capacity of the TV with a WDH.
