Can a Storm tow anything?

[CDoasis]

I have a 91 Geo Storm GSi. 5 speed manual. Does anyone know if it's possible to tow anything with it? Can I get a hitch attached to it?

I doubt anyone makes a hitch kit for it, so you'd have to have something done up custom. It might be OK up to about 500 lbs, but not sure. It definately isn't built for towing anything, so it's iffy. I used my '93 Civic to tow a 12' aluminum boat and that car didn't have any trouble with it, but the Civic was a bit more sturdy. Anyway, I would talk to a shop that specializes in custom hitches (not U-Haul or such) and see what they say.

That's a good idea. Maybe I should talk to someone who does custom hitches.. if I can find someone.

But I thought that since it was a manual it might be capable of towing a bit more... tbh, I was hoping I could tow my 88 Ford Ranger with it! Hehe.

Hmmmm, I'm not psychic, but I see bad things in your future if you try that! That much weight would probably rip the ass end off the Storm and at the very least it would be a quick death to the clutch!

Oops! Alright, I probably won't attempt it.

500 pounds you say? I might invest in a trailer, I suppose..
