Post Weight and towing...

NEW OWNER HERE!
Can someone give me a general idea of the weight of my newly purchased 70 Ambassador?
I am trying to decide what type and size of towing vehicle to buy and dont know what it will need to be towed.
Thanks so much for your advise!

twin bed 4665 , tongue 450
double bed 4715 , tongue 480

This is DRY WEIGHT. Add about 1500 for GVWR, that's what you have to take into consideration.
