When I think of "Trans Am", camping always comes to mind... While strolling through the toy department at a nearby Wal-Mart this week, I ran across this 1:87 scale die-cast. I collect '98-'02 Trans Am memorabilia, so this definitely had to be put into the collection

I've got a hitch. Had one on my 93 T/A also.
Pulls my trailer down the hiway at 80+ with no problems at all.
Don't knock it until ya try it.
If it's set-up properly with the correct tongue weight, it has no adverse effects on the car at all.
Going to WallyWorld this afternoon to find one of those for the collection too, ...

Does that camper have T-tops? Do they leak? I wonder if it has pop-up lights and power windows that break? I am gonna buy me one, and these will be my first posts in the new "Camping" Section on LS1Tech.com:

Not everyone can afford 2 vehicles. Check out your local autox some time. You'll see everything from f-bodies to dinky no-torque-ricebangers with trailer hitches. It's the only way they can get spare tires, tools, jack, etc. to the track/race with them. I wouldn't do it, but I've had a truck almost as long as I've had my TA, so no need. But some people use thier sports/muscle cars as their daily, year round driver, and that's all they can do.
