Which ~36' Class A can tow 15K Stacker

I am starting to look for an RV that could tow a race stacker (total weight will be under 15K loaded). The shortest stacker is 24' with full length 29', so using 65' max length I am left with 36'.

I am struggling to find any Class A RV that can work for this, any pointers? (preferably 5-10 years old).

I know something like Class C Dynamax DX3 would work, and I've seen a number of people towing with 42' Class A (to the total length of 73'), but are there really no under 40' class A that can tow?

Thank,

Vadim

PS: I am aware that "technically" there are 22' and even 20' stackers.

Have the cash and be ready when what you want pops up. I saw mine sitting beside the road with a for sale sign. Owner said someone was getting the money, I said I have it now. Deal done.

And at this price, I may be better off with something like http://www.demartinirv.com/vehicles/detail/3900

@ferndaleflyer and @vylog.

Thank you for the information. I was looking at Dynasty already and Bishop seems to be the shortest option available. I'll probably will wait till fall to see if prices will comedown/more option will be available.

Thank you,

Vadim

Doubt youโ€™ll find a 36โ€™ capable of 15K plus as many rigs as I see way over 65โ€™ I would not have a problem going 67โ€™, even in CA. You could get a over length permit for CA as the CHP doesnโ€™t seem to have a sense of humorโ€ฆwouldnโ€™t worry about other states. A 2003-07 Monaco Dynasty Bishop 38โ€™ tag axle (shortest rig with a tag axle) and it has a hitch capable of what you want to do. Yes, itโ€™s only rated 10K but in 2008 it was rated 15K provided you didnโ€™t raise the tagโ€ฆ no structural changes to the hitch. Iโ€™m putting 1800 lbs on my hitch and have for over 100+K milesโ€ฆthe hitch is a H (2 crossmembers), not a T with only one.
The Monacoโ€™s, Holiday Ramblerโ€™s of that era are some of the best ever made with great handling and 8,000+ lbs of CCC. The Cummins ISL 400-450 has 1200-1250 torque and its a good engine. Some 06 engines have a wrist pin machining problem and I would stay away from those serial #sโ€ฆ 46543077 TO 46603939.
I would look at this one in LAโ€ฆprice is a little high unless it has new tires and batteries:
Welcome to the forums and Iโ€™d say youโ€™ve gotten your moneyโ€™s worth.

The 36ft is a 1998 Monaco Windsor. It is still like new as original owner kept it inside as do I. At one tome I had a Monaco Dynasty 45ft with a 450hp Cummins. Never towed the stacker but towed a 32ft enclosed all over. Thats around 77ft long and I did take it to Pamona once. I am 80 now and just have a foot brake bracket car. I think I have had everything at one time or another.

I might be wrong, but 1 issue I see is a hitch stout enough for that kind of load could make it hard for major service on a rear engine.

I towed one with both a 36 and 40ft DP Monacoes--the 40 had a 450HP Cummins and the 36 had a 8.3 Cummins rated at 330hp from the factory. Had it turned up don't know what HP it is now but it towed that big ol trailer just fine. I have now down sized to a open Featherlite. Leaving for Bristol Wend morning.


Do you remember what year was that 36 Monaco? I've seen a few 40ft but have not seen 36 yet.

Thanks
