I have not heard of anyone having this problem. We have had both Blue Ox and Roadmaster tow bars and in both cases the tow bar extended past the side of the motorhome when at a 90 degree angle, and 90 degrees was the limit. You can check it yourself by putting your tow bar 90 degrees and extending a leg fully. Then do a bit of measuring or cutting some cardboard to match the front of the tow car to see if it will hit. If you use a ball hitch you might have a problem but a motorhome mount tow bar should be fine.

Thanks Bill, we have the roadmaster all terrain at this time. I didn't it would make contact but thought I'd ask the experts. I will play around with it a little just to make sure.

We just moved from a Blue Ox Aladdin tow bar to a Roadmaster Sterling (the aluminum version of the all terrain Falcon with the cable paths) when we changed SUVs from a 2002 Honda CRV to a 2012 Chevrolet Equinox, both AWD. Neither tow bar would go past 90 degrees, which is parallel to the back of the motorhome. Our Blue Ox was worn out after 8 years of heavy use and since Roadmaster is in Vancouver WA (Portland OR), it is easier to get Roadmaster parts in the Pacific Northwest so we moved to it when we bought our brand new tow car last month. Also Diane wanted the lightest tow bar in case she has to handle it without me and the current Sterling is 2lbs lighter than the current Aladdin, both of them are aluminum. (I know our old Aladdin is lighter but they did make changes). We also moved from a Brake Buddy Vantage Select to a Roadmaster Invisibrake for auxiliary braking. This is all better for Diane's back and mine.

We went with the invisibrake as well. I like the fact that it's out of sight and out the way. Nothing to remove when you want to use the toad.

I made a complete 180 tight-as-I-could-steer U-turn in an RV park in Q-town and the Jeep did not contact the MH. I thought for sure we would have to un-hook it but it made the turn with the RV just fine. We have the Falcon All Terrain hitch.

Good to know Dan - thanks! I'm going to give that a try next time out.

We have turned around in the street before with no problem and we had the wheel cranked all the way. 40' Allegro bus towing a dodge dakota crew cab pickup with a Roadmaster Sterling hitch. We use a M&G braking system which also doesn't have anything in the car to hook up. Only the air line and the breakaway cable..
