My concern is that on my coach the hitch a Class 3 is rated for 5,000#. Since the Navigator that would be flat towed is 5,800#s I would be over by 800#s; thus where my question / concern begins.

I have dolly towed a Chevy Cruze and several 6' X 12' Uhaul Trailers and if it were not for rear camera, I would forget they were back there. I never had a noticeable change in power or braking.
We always stay within the manufacturing guidelines. We used to flat tow our Escalade EVS 6200 pounds with the ARIA with no issue. We did buy the towing equipment with more than enough margin. No sense in pushing the limits.
