Towing with 06 corolla

[bandit86]

Curtis makes a hitch they claim is fully enclosed so it will not rust out from the inside. Hidden hitch I would like if it was much stealthier. Anyone have either of these setups?

Re: Towing with 06 corolla

what are you going to tow? a 12 ft boat or a lawnmower is all i would tow with it....

It's rated for 1500#. I would like to tow my atv onmy 5x8 utility trailer

What boat and trailer combo would be less than 1500 pounds, how heavy are jet boats?

Re: Towing with 06 corolla

if you want to stay under 1500#, your looking at a small aluminum boat and small outboard, on a lightweight trailer.

Jetboats are much heavier. you may be able to tow a jetski.

What about an inflatable with an outboard? Can they be transported inflated? Are they heavy?

a Corolla will always be a poor tow vehicle. Sorry. I do not even fit inside a Corolla.

I've hauled more stuff on a 4x8 utility trailer behind my old '94 Corolla than most pickup trucks haul in their beds over their lifetimes.

A classic 13' whaler is less than a thousand pounds on a trailer. I towed one for many years with a '94 Corolla. Never a problem even with four people + the boat stuff in the trunk.
