Hitch for the S? Can it tow anything?
I went to Lake Conroe (Houston) this weekend and saw all those little jet skis shooting around and it sure looked like a hell of a lot of fun. I was thinking of buying one, then I remembered that I sold my truck for the S 
. Do you guys know if there is a hitch made for the S, and if it could even pull a jet ski? Thanks!

I ordered a hitch and I'll be towing a jetski with it. Don't see anything wrong with it. People here say it can void your warranty and probably does. I say go for it, jetsking is extremely FUN!! do a search on "hitches and towing" and you'll find info on this matter and where to get a hitch. I've responded on a few threads on this subject.

Not for nothing, but if you have the cash for the ski then maybe you should pick up a little beater car and slap a U-haul hitch on that. That's what I did and I works great. Beaters come in handy when your dealing with a car a small as the S.
Food for thought.

I was thinking about doing so, but I can't afford all of the extra fees/insurance/etc. that go along with another car (maybe a bike but that would defeat the purpose). Maybe I should just throw a hitch on my dad's Jag??

i wouldnt think the s would have really enough torque to tow that much....Im not trying to hate. Only thing I would tow with an S (this is not a pun) would be a bike on a small trailer....now that would be pimp

www.bageco.com is where I ordered the hitch and the wiring harness. it cost me $288.00. I still haven't received it yet so I'll keep you informed. I also got the directions to install on www.s2ki.com/faqs/trailerhitch.php
Not sure if that link is still there .
