I probabaly asked the wrong question, I mean the towing package. Zac, is that what you meant? Or is it just the hitch?

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

I was told when I bought the wife's Pilot that towing without the factory tow package voids the powertrain warranty.

ya I wonder where that came from, bassmaster can tell which beach just by looking at the grains...

you can keep it for this winter Ronnie, no charge

I think it rides a little low on the beach and that damn stuff keeps flying up in all the nooks and crannys. I even made up a device to wash under the truck after going oversand, I guess it doesn't help much
