An intermediate towing device is provided for use between a tow vehicle and a towed vehicle. The towing device provides for a transfer of weight between the towed vehicle to the towing device to provide for a smoother ride while pulling or towing a towed vehicle. A steering assembly of the intermediate towing device provides for the transfer from a change in direction from the tow vehicle to the towing device via linkages and swiveling devices. Therefore, as the tow vehicle changes direction, this will be transferred to the wheels of the towing device to provide for greater control in both a forward and rear ward direction. Furthermore, a hitch connecter may be positioned between the tow vehicle and the towing device to provide for even greater control and auto steering of the intermediate towing device via the change in direction of the towed vehicle.
