Ok folks - this is the first vehicle I have owned that is capable of towing anything substantial. I need to tow my track car this weekend and consequently need to buy a ball mount and ball (i have the big tow package). My thoughts are to get something that will tow up to the maximum towing capacity of the vehicle, even though at this time I won't be towing that much.
The vehicle I'll be towing weighs in at approx 2800 lbs and the trailer will be a uhaul rental (until i save up some money to get one of my own). So I think we're talking about 5000 lbs. Here is the vehicle:
Can anyone give me some suggestions on the type of ball mount I should get?
DO I need a WD system? Or can I do ok with a weight bearing ballmount?
