Well once you find out the only possible advantage of towing a car trailer with a gas class A is that you might possibly be able to back it up, you might appreciate the good advice you were given!
Simple solution is get your gas Class A, and take the $$$ you would spend on the trailer and trade the Suburu for a flat tow compatible toad.

I didn't complain or say I didn't like anything. I was seeking "solid advice" on how to tow a Subaru Crosstrek, on a trailer with a 35-foot class A motorhome with a gas engine. Not how to flat-tow a car I don't own with a diesel motor I'm not going to buy. But people can keep telling me I should do something that I'm not going to do.

I wish I had a dollar for every time some poster told me I should get a diesel motor or a car that I can flat-tow. I wish I had another dollar for every time I thought to myself if money was no object I probably would do that. If I had all those dollars money would probably not be an object for me.

Having said all that, in my opinion hauling a car on a trailer is the least desirable of all the possible options for towing a car. Driving is no problem, with a little experience backing is not that hard. I've maneuvered a 22 foot flatbed trailer with a 40 foot box truck and it was much easier than I would have thought. The main issue is that when you are parked and unloaded you have an extra 1500 pound vehicle 21 feet long and 8 feet wide that can't move on it's own. It's all up to you, but if I were in your shoes I'd ditch the Crosstrek and find something you can tow 4-down.
