This actually the reason why I really don't like it how so many folks take tow hitches off of antique cars as I'm told they used to be on damn near every car during the 50s and 60s today while yes today they are quite impractical but like you don't have to have a trailer on a hitched car 247 but still your making a already impractical car and making it slightly more impractical

Me and my family used to go camping. We always towed with my father's car.
Aw man, no way 50 horses could pull this, gotta have at least 500.
I had a 2005 Camry which broke down last year, so I replaced it with a 2015 Mazda 5. The towing section of the manual for the Camry said something along the lines of "Well, this car is not really intended for towing, but if you must use it for that, here's what you have to do…". For the Mazda, the manual just says that it is not recommended to use the car for towing at all.
