crystal clear. not the hitch i suspected, but as a bumper mount hitch, i would only tow a couple of kayaks with that. maybe a rowboat.

That's pretty light weight, only a 50# or so tongue weight trailer if you don't want your bumper ripped off.

That tow hitch would do for a cycle carrier too.

But nothing really heavy, as it will take out your bumper and and exhaust if you stop suddenly.
