I have done a minor reinforcement where the hitch attaches to the frame.
I’m using a Curt weight distributing hitch/sway control system.
The rv drives well with this set-up, I can cruise at 95-100 KPH, one hand on the wheel, Fuel mileage is about 7+ mpg....
I have not seen anyone towing the maximum weight on this forum yet, I just thought I would post my experience with it.

I'm getting ready to tow a 20 foot trailer with a weight of 6,000 pounds. I'm wondering how's your power up the hills and/or mountains.

Thanks.
