Default Trailer Hitch on Impala SS

I am thinking about a trailer hitch for my '08 Impala SS, but I am worried that it will look like crap.

Anyone have a good pic of a trailer hitch on an Impala SS? I searched and googled, but no luck.

Thanks for the video - that was really helpful. I would still love to see a hitch mounted on an actual SS, but this gave me the general idea.

BuffaloSS has one on his SS. He should be able to chime in with some pics.

REDNECK!

Haha just playing, if you need to tow then do it. I just think it looks funny with an impala or sedan towing something.

I agree, but I am downsizing the fleet by selling my Colordo pickup.

I never like seeing a car tow anything but the impala is a better tow car then lots. Just make sure you get a small one.

I wish I could get one on my Monte for a bike mount - I can only get mine in the car torn apart.

I could get two in the Impalas - pain in the ***!
