If you drive a compact, hybrid or crossover vehicle, you’re probably well aware that towing a Winnebago is a no-go. But there are times when it would be convenient to tow a small U-Haul trailer when moving. Or perhaps, as an avid cyclist, you long for the means to transport your bike(s) to and from your favorite trails while avoiding the pitfalls of roof-mounted bike racks. If either of these are the case, a standard class hitch is the way to go. Torklift Central has you covered with the EcoHitch.

The EcoHitch is Torklift Central’s premier hidden hitch available for a variety of compact, crossover, or hybrid vehicles from Audi to Volkswagen. Each vehicle’s individual towing capacities are different depending on the vehicle manufacturer. However, the right EcoHitch for your vehicle has been designed to meet and maximize your vehicle’s capability. It’s important to never exceed factory determined towing capacity to be safe and legal when on the road.

Thanks to vigilante superheroes alike, being an outlaw isn’t necessarily a bad thing. In the world of towing, it’s against the law to drive a vehicle that’s exceeding its maximum tow weight rating. Since tow ratings are always dependent on the capacity ratings of your vehicle, make sure your factory trailer hitch isn’t rated less than your truck. If it is, it will prevent you from towing at the full potential and capacity provided by your truck. Equip your vehicle with the highest rated receiver hitch that maximizes the capabilities of your truck. With the Outlaw Series, nothing can stop you, except your truck.
