I'm putting a hitch on my 5.0

i think they look bad, but they're functional..when i see a big square in the back of a nice GT bumper it makes me cringe...but hey, at least they can put their show goodies in the trailer and not in the storage hatch, IN the car
I'm not doing it because it looks good! :rolleyes:



What would you be pulling?

A U-Haul trailer cross country.
 
i put a hitch on mine... i had to tow a small uhaul trailer from IL to FL... thats the only reason i put it on and as soon as i got it home i took it off!

For those that say u have to cut a hole in the bumper is wrong.. there are certin ones made just for fox bodys! yes they are expensive! i paid 226 for mine shiped to me! If someone cut a hole in the bumper for it to fit they went cheap and wasnt made for that mustang!

Also if u need one PM me i will sell you mine! Only used for 4 days and put 1,000 miles on it!

How much? What year fox did you use it on? It was a bolt-on?
 
this has got to be the funniest picture EVER! I'm still laughing :rlaugh: :rlaugh: :rlaugh: :rlaugh: :rlaugh: you know your a red neck when you piggy back your 4 wheeler on your mustang hatch! to get to the fields!

Mighta got away with only a few scratches if the strap wasnt f-ing up the bumper so much:rlaugh:
 
i dont think the hitch on my car is all that bad. heres a pic of it. dont mind the dangling light connector that i need to do something about. the car will pull the hell outta that boat but braking is another story. i need to upgrade to 13inch brakes in the front. even w/ a 5spd it does decent on the ramps too. one day i had a civic with a fart can try to race with the boat on the back and i still outrun him

its a 15ft 70 sidewinder with a 140 horse johnson 4cyl.
 
lmao. its definitely a wild ride. im a speed freak and that thing has scared me a time or two. it makes you really feel small out there in the water especially when a huge boat goes by. im gonna get some videos when spring time rolls around. its a site to see for sure.
 
Rent a truck with a trailer to tow the car not the other way around. Why would you want to destroy a nice looking ars for something you are going to do maybe only once??

PLEASE DON'T DO IT!! I think others would agree.
 
imo i wouldnt do it, my car came with a hitch and first thing i did was take it off. but i dont think it would be redneck, unless you tow something redneck worthy. A boat not redneck, a bunch of a dead deer, while your driving still wearing your camo, redneck!
