Ghetto? Yeah a little bit. But I have seen some people have hitches for hauling tires to track events and such.

Re: trailer hitch on trans am

And since you are trailering a motocycle I don't think that would be that bad, but then again, why not just ride the bike in the first place, isn't that the point? To just ride man, ride. The open road is all you need. But then again, doing some burnouts and doughnuts along the way would be fun, without the trailer of course.

Re: trailer hitch on trans am

nothing wrong with a to hitch on a 3rd gen, like said before, many races do it to bring a small trailer of tolls and tires to track days ect.

Just respect the hitch weight ratings, dont try to pull a camper or something stupid with the car.
