About this app

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 could select the fifth wheel hitch input box if the hitch was not installed when the truck was weighed.

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.

I may be being unfair ,because I failed to research pre-purchase, but for a paid app I expected a lot more functionality than this has. I'm sure it calculates accurately, but it is close to impossible to use as a novice. The app requires that you find all the data needed for the calculation entirely from other sources, which may not use the same descriptions as the app requests. For me a total waste of money.

Dear User, I am sorry that some features were not working as you expected. Please share the exact issues you had at info@fifthwheelst.com, and I'll do my best to rectify or explain those at the earliest. RVTC is the most accurate and simplest app currently available, complies with SAE J2807, and the terms used are compliant with the auto industry.

I entered all the information and never received an answer that was of any help whatsoever. I played around with my cargo load weight, if I up it over the limit, for an instant it flashes "GVWR exceeded" at the bottom of the screen. I did not even notice this warning the first several times I did this. I do not recommend this app.

Your review has no valuable information. The lack to follow simple instructions and failure to read the information available on the FAQ page is no reason to write a negative review. The app is a proven success with nearly 300,000 successful calculations to date. If you believe I'm wrong, explain it to me at https://rvtowcheck.com/contact_us.html.

The app is totally wrong. I install this app, plugged in all my weight info, it came up with some weird numbers and stated I was over my GCWR of my truck. Went to the cat scales near me, I can confirm that this app is useless!!!! Don't waste your money!!!!! I want a refund!!!!! And this app has been reported for providing false information or not doing anything.
