Hello" My name is "LittleOldMan" I have just finished reading all the posts on the General section I will soon start on the Mr Fix it section. About thirty four years ago I had access to a Coleman valley forge camped from Al to Maine and back the next year camped to the Grand Canyon Tetons Yellowstone and back. I do powwows and Native American Festivals. To old and fat to change pants in a camper shell any more. Been looking for a good used unit but I am patient one will come. TV is a Dakota 3.9 v six magnum. Bumper states 200 pound tongue wt 2000 trailer wt. Have a bolt to the frame receiver type hitch, not on yet. First question to this most knowledgeable group. Please define class 1, class 2, and class 3 hitches. Believe that this TV could tow most any PU. Understand that tyranny cooler may have to be added. Please advise. This is a great site full of info that I can use thank you.. "LittleOldMan"
Welcome!
Welcome. You can find information about hitch classes at the following link:

Good luck
Thanks; Can see difference. If I bolt on a receiver type hitch about how much will it increase the tow wt. I don't plan to pull anything but a PU though. Will I be okay. "LittleOldMan"
The vehicles; owner's manual is a good place for that information, specific to the year, make, model and options. And how full you pack the truck (people & cargo)
Bumpers are usually too high to pull a PU anywhere close to level (my preference)
Welcome
Welcome to PUT! I hope you soon find the perfect PU for you.:)
