    I would get one rated for at least 10k lbs. That being said...I would also recommend getting one rated as high as you can afford. Reese hitches has the Tow Beast class 5 hitch that is rated for 15k I believe

    The Valley Class IV looks about the same as the Draw Tite and is cheaper. I would not go lighter than Class IV. Always go heavier-duty than you need for the safety margin.

    Definitely do class IV or V... better overkill than not strong enough.
