I bought it here

740 hitch

It pulls just fine. I pulled two dirt bikes and gear on a 12 foot trailer to FL and back last Xmas. One hint, the shorter the trailer the better the gas mileage. pulling a 5x8 and one bike I get 22mpg. pulling two and a bigger trailer I ger 16mpg. I believe when using the longer trailer the bikes get out of the air bubble from the car and cause much more drag.



2000 740iL, Anthracite Gray, Powerflex Traction Bushings, New and improved with a DeLan hitch!!!
