    I'll have to check. I have a civic with an 1.25 receiver class 1. A 1.25 class 2 does not fit, the pin hole is not in the same place.

    Awe, I didn't mean to offend you with my sarcastic post about a ball mount. Apologies, bud.

    On a related (hopefully) note. Can anyone recommend a small trailer brand to choose?? For lawn motors/equipment/stone, and the occasional furniture. Thanks!!

    Check harbor freight. Their 4x8 is a good little trailer and it folds up. Rated at about 1000lbs. I've had mine for 12 years and I over load it with 3 yds. of mulch all the time. Just put some C rated 12 in. tires on it.

    Also included in the tow package is a post-it note you can stick on the tachometer to alleviate some of the cringe-factor when towing at 5,000 rpms.

    does it come with ear plugs, too? It's pretty loud at 5000 rpm

    A shortage of hitches??!!! In the USA??!!! Taking off hitches and wiring??!!

    Now there's a crock of absolute bullshit if I've ever smelled one. If you have the tranny and oil cooler, he fucking lied and sold it to someone else.

    They don't fuck with that shit in Canada. Truck needs hitch or it doesn't sell.

    holy turds that is the biggest lie I've ever heard. They ordered it without the tow package and still wanted to sell it to you. I would have made them order another. The tow package is the best deal available

    Is there a wiring diagram for the trailer connector and is there a pre wired trailer battery charge line and what is it rated for?
    I can't find this information in the owners manual. I could find fuse box locations but not the actual layout inside the fuse box.
    still waiting for my truck its still a month out.

    The wire and connector is supposed to be under the dash on the left side, maybe behind a wiring harness that runs down the side of the truck toward the floor.

    I am concerned about the wiring specifications at the trailer connector in the bumper. My 7pin trailer connector has a charge line to charge the battery in the trailer.
