Good to see, back in the day I towed a 2 axle UHaul from PA to WI (800 miles) with a 2002 4 cyl Altima, so i'm sure a VQ Altima would tow a motorcycle, jet ski, UHAUL just fine! Buying a truck for Very rare jobs is stupid...

I have one of these installed on my wife's Acura TL typeS. I use it to haul my race bikes to the track and at least I'm towing in style.

A Trailer hitch doesn't mean you own a trailer or live in one. My first car ('96 Sentra) had a Trailer hitch which I bought to connect a 4'x8' U-Haul Trailer to when I drove cross country from AZ to NY (2,600 miles) after graduating college. You one day may need to tow something and instead of renting a truck or moving van want to use your car and will be thankful someone made one for our car.

no offense was meant to those who may or may not live in trailers. I was clearly trying to point out an item for the A/C that made me laugh. I am in no way stating that the only purpose of this is the transportation of moble homes, and I am aware that this product could serve some valuble purpose to some people. I just find humor in the thought of "sporty" cars towing things. Also, to those who say that buying a truck for rare jobs is stupid, obviously you didnt realize that i was also saying that as a joke. And personally, I think that buying this product for rare jobs would be stupid. If you tow stuff regularly, buy a truck, if not, find a friend with one. Just my opinion. Once again, sorry if I'm the only person who found this funny, I was just bored and stumbled across this, and maybe it will help some of those who were looking for such a product.

$150 for a hitch, if your moving and need to transport the car anyway is a good deal. I'm sure your friends truck with gas time ect will cost more with you following ect...Also for snowmobiles, motercycles, a small trailer to take your lawn tracter for service ect...And for the record my house is 6500 sq ft no trailer here

as stated above: maybe this would point out a product that may be useful to some. obviously you are one of the people that want something like this, to that I say, im glad that my mindless internet surfing brought some good to someone and helped them find something that they need and may not have stumbled across themselves. Im pretty sure you are misunderstanding the point of this post, ie: didnt mean to start a pi$$ing contest to see whose house is bigger. I, however, dont need it and found it to be funny. end of story. Did not mean to undermind its usefulness.
