I'd like to know what you think about towing a light trailer with a 2009 t/c. I'd like to tow around 800 and 1500 pounds. (snowmobile or a jetski). I do not worry about the tranny or the engine itself, but i'm concern about the turbo overheating. Is it dangerous that the turbo overheat.

 

this car does not tow things lol

 

lolz.....

 

.....I hope your joking

 

if u got a ls then its ok

please say your ******* kidding....EPIC FAIL

 

LOL that was great

 

Just buy a really cheap s10 or something and save your car you can get a cheap s10 and the ins is like 35 a month or something like that.

 

LMFAO thats hilarous

 

It won't tow, but it will haul... a** lol

On a more serious note, I have wondered if it had light abilities, such as mounting a small bike rack that goes into a receiver. I know that some people with the Sky have been able to rig up something for instance, and it wasn't originally meant for it either.

I figure that the rear bumper lip will keep anything like that from happening though.

 

there is no reason it cant tow a light trailer. ppl tow bikes to the track all the time. i put 110,00 miles on my 05 SS and towed my bikes to the track all the time. the car never had 1 problem and you cant even tell there is anything back there aslong as you get a super-light trailer and are only hauling something light (like a dirtbike)

 

proved us all wrong...

 

manual says 1000lbs max

 

i think my trailer weighs under 300lbs (i opted to go w/o an end gate just to keep the weight down, and my bikes weigh around 200 (depending which one) so thats light enough for the car to pull w/o any harm. my friend comes to practice with an old GTi that he hauls and another guy with an impala with a trailer bigger than mine. aslong as you arent being ridiculous, then youll be fine.

i havent put my hitch on my SS/tc yet, but sure enough its gonna be haulin suzukis this year!

 

trailer hitches on cars.............ewwww, lol.

 

lol ROFLCOPTERS

 

My boss use to put trailer hitches on his 328i bmw all the time...looks stupid.

 

just dont be like this guy hahaha

really nooo way

 

wow i dont eve let anybody or anything in my back seat and i have a daughter

 

thats funny as ****

 

How'd you get a hitch on it? Was there any cutting of the rear bumper involved?

 

no. you cant even tell it on there. someone posted pretty detailed pics of their black ss/tc that they just put on. im sure if u search you can find the thread. you cant tell its there until you fasten the insert/ball, which you obviously only put on when you are ready to connect the trailer anyways.

 

for some reason i was thinking bout this yesturday

 

High rise + trailer? Rear visibility must be next to nothing.
