BillAdams Report post Posted January 30, 2017 How much towing capacity does your Canyon Star have? There are labels showing axle capacities as well as your total cargo and towing weighs (I forget the correct abbreviation but CCCW or similar). These are the most important numbers along with have the coach weighed at all 4 corners so you have a starting point to allow you to ensure you don't over load the coach. Don't forget to install a braking system on whatever tow vehicle you choose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

manholt Report post Posted January 30, 2017 As BillA wrote. Read your owners manual, it will explain what the different acronyms mean! There are also other factors involve and that is in the manual as well. If you don't have a manual? Call Newmar Tech Department with your VIN # and you can get a copy sent to you or downloaded. Enjoy your coach and safe travels. Carl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pmsaran Report post Posted May 1, 2017 If your MH is a DP you should be able to tow closer to 6 to 8K. My 2015 Thor Hurricane gas 34E is rated at 5000 lbs tow and I tow a 2011 Dodge Dakota 4x4 auto which weights in at 4K. Phil Saran Colorado Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
