I'm going to be buying a 27' Class C RV and wanted to know if anyone out there tows with an RV. Even if you don't I would like to hear the pros and cons about doing it. It would just be towing a two horse bumper pull.

We have some friends that we camp with that have this setup. It is real handy from the aspect that you have so much space in the RV as compared to the LQ on a trailer. However, they always have to borrow a truck if they want to leave camp and go somewhere. That is the main downside I see with them. You will see several rigs like this at any campground these days. I would make sure that it was equipped with a powertrain capable of hauling the load you intend to hook to. Best of luck with it.

My wife and I have been horse camping this year with a Class C RV pulling an aluminum 2h BP. We really enjoyed the living conveniences but sure did miss the freedom of available transportation while camping for a week. It is really nice to take a shower in our own motorhome after a long day of riding. I think a person considering this type of horse camping has to think about what is most important to themselves, living comfortably or needing transportation during your stay at the camp. Most any reasonable sized motorhome will easily handle a two horse trailer. Ours is an older Dodge with a 360 and it does fine. Good Luck.

There have been several people in the trail riding club I'm in that tow their trailers with RV's. I'm not sure of the class of them, but one has a 35' with 2 slide-outs and they tow a 3H. They have gone all over the country with it.
Others have smaller RV's and tow 2H's. I agree about the problem with not having a way to leave camp once you're parked. That is the biggest down side, but they sure are comfy and roomy. Another friend has one of the van RV's and she pulls a Brenderup with it.
