Price History of RV Tow Check

Description of RV Tow Check

The RV Tow Check app is the first "Before You Buy an RV" towing capacity calculator that conforms to manufacturers' weight safety and warranty warnings. With 100% accuracy, RV Tow Check answers the most often asked questions, "How much can my truck tow?" or "How much can my SUV tow?" or "How much can my motor coach tow?" However, the accuracy of one's input is not guaranteed. RV Tow Check uniquely complies with the SAE J2807 trailer weight rating (TWR) calculation methodology. RV Tow Check requires four weight inputs from the tow vehicle. The required entries are gross combination weight rating (GCWR), gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), gross vehicle weight (GVW), and trailer weight ratings (TWR). RV Tow Check provides instant max towing capacity results as the user selects various kingpin or tongue weight percentages. RV Tow Check simplifies the process of obtaining the realistic vehicle towing capacity (RVTC) for any vehicle towing a trailer. The app's math calculations are as accurate as the weights entered into it. RV Tow Check displays realistic vehicle towing capacity for a fifth wheel, gooseneck, and conventional trailers (bumper pull) simultaneously. RV Tow Check users have the option to select a fifth wheel hitch if it is not already installed in the truck. RV Tow Check users may include any additional unscaled weight for cargo, aftermarket equipment, and passenger weight. The app does not assume everyone weighs 150 or 175 pounds as the manufacturers do. RV Tow Check can assist RV buyers and dealers in ensuring tow vehicles are appropriately matched to any type of trailer towed. RV Tow Check provides users with the choice of beginner or expert mode of operation. The app's initial mode is Beginner. Beginner mode has detailed step-by-step instructions. Once the user has learned the correct use, they may switch to "Expert Mode." Expert users will view a streamlined single-page calculator without the instructions. RV Tow Check is a must-have tool for anyone owning or considering a tow vehicle less than a late-model one-ton dually truck. RV Tow Check is a small price to pay, considering it can save one from a very costly mistake.

Reviews of RV Tow Check

  • Good app, lots of potential…

    Solid base. If it showed the calculated amounts, differences, it would help in purchasing new equipment. I’d like to be able to enter my truck info and see my max safe travel trailer amounts.

    Developer Response

    Thank you for your interesting feedback. I'm not sure what you are explaining. Anyone who enters the app's four required weight information should only be from the tow vehicle's specifications. Once the correct info is entered, app users will see max towing weight results for fifth wheel and conventional trailer towing. The results is based on the user's selected pin or tongue weight percentage. All this is thoroughly explained in the app.
  • Truly useless

    This “app” could be done with a simple spread sheet. Don’t waste your time or money trying to figure it out.

    Developer Response

    Developing a spreadsheet was the beginning of the app creation. However, to date, I have not seen anyone else publish a spreadsheet as accurate as the RV Tow Check app. Apparently, GM recognized the RV Tow Check app value by creating a Trailering Information label that is tailored to work perfectly with the app. For you to assume that everyone knows all the required formulas to calculate realistic vehicle towing capacity is absurd. If you would like to discuss your pretentious response more, please email me at info@RVtowCheck.com.
  • Waste of $1.99

    Does what it says it does, but so does a simple calculator.

    Save you money. I lost mine.

    Yes - I read the directions and watched to video.

    Should be an area to enter your RV specifics.

    Developer Response

    Sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction with the RV Tow Check app. I would like to help better understand what the app is for and how to correctly use it. I am glad you recognize the app “Does what it says it does.” However, would it not be a bit presumptuous to believe that everyone else knows all four of the calculation methodologies required to achieve a realistic vehicle towing capacity while considering the various pin or tongue weight possibilities? I am glad you know the calculations. If anything, the RV Tow Check app proved your work--is that really a lost investment? There is no need to enter any details about RV specifics when only considering the tow vehicle’s realistic vehicle towing capacity. The important thing is knowing the tow vehicle’s capabilities with various pin or tongue weight percentages selected by the user. Entering RV info does not matter here. I will gladly answer any questions when you email me at info@RVtowCheck.com.
