As to the towing capacity. I believe your GCWR is 30K so as long as the coach, cargo and towed vehicle are below 30K you should be alright.

The first thing you should check however is the rating of your hitch. Thor made a change during the 2015 model year production run where they went from a 5K hitch to the 8K hitch. If your Outlaw was produced early in the production run you may be limited to 5K of towing capacity just because of the hitch. My 2015 Challenger was manufactured in July 2014 and has the 8K hitch installed. When I purchased the coach this past January the dealer could not tell me the capacity of the hitch so I crawled on the ground and got the capacity off the sticker on the hitch. You may want to verify this for yourself.
We checked it out and it's an 8k hitch. This is helping me feel better, thanks!

I'm really excited to find one RV that meets most of our desires. I'm hopeful we'll find one more so we can compare them and feel confident in our choice!
