hello, there are a few out there they go about $450-$500, for a receiver type hitch, last i checked. mine has one of the $99 bumper mounts, so the limit is deffinatly in the hitch.

I towed a 400lb+ trailer with 2 5-600lb motorcycles on it, no problem. now, after looking over my hitch, i wouldn't do it again.

on my list of things to do is get to the steel yard and pick up some pieces to start building my own.I will take pics, and patterns/measurements.

the plan is to drop the bumper and use it's mounts for a hitch frame, then replace the bumper. and also tying in to the body right behind the tank, up thru the floor. I am not sure how this would work with euro bumpers. this would be a ssmaller receiver style, so as to match the wifes volvo, and i can switch stuff between them.

if yout dont want to drill holes in your car for a hitch, buy a truck...
