Does anybody have a trailer hitch on their Turbo Coupe? Or have experience with UHaul hitches?
I have an 8x4 Harbor Freight trailer for general utility purposes, so nothing big whatsoever, but I'd like to be able to pull it with the TurboChicken rather than my 8mpg Bronco, especially if I take longer road trips and need to pick up, drop off or generally move anything.
I know the car isn't rated to tow, but I think a lot of that comes down to Ford Warranty concerns relating to clutch life or the already strained automatic, depending on transmission choice. I'm adding a few aftermarket temperature sensors for coolant and oil eventually, and I'll not be pushing the car to its limits (any more than I already do) so I don't see any other problems...it's just impossible to find a hitch that fits these cars.
