I doubt I would ever tow more than 3000ish pounds, however I would rather have the class 3 hitch with some extra room to grow, rather than the just good enough class 2. I found a class 2 on turbo bricks that the guy only wants 70 bucks for, but I was planning on doing some welding and bracketing to add some strength. Where is your hitch attached to the car for it to be able to haul 7000lbs and not rip off?? Who made the class 3 hitch for the volvo?
As for the car itself, I have been looking for the big brake upgrade anyway but there are never any of the cars at the local yards around here. My car is lowered slightly so I wont be trying to push the tongue weight. If I need to tow a car or something I have a F350, but for lighter loads I thought it would be fun to put the volvo to work a little.
