This actually the reason why I really don't like it how so many folks take tow hitches off of antique cars as I'm told they used to be on damn near every car during the 50s and 60s today while yes today they are quite impractical but like you don't have to have a trailer on a hitched car 247 but still your making a already impractical car and making it slightly more impractical
Tow hitches are an essential thing for me, even though I would never tow a trailer. Reason being? Bike rack on the hitch. It's so much easier to load then on the roof, no risk of destroying anything and carrying bikes on the roof is not possible with heavy e-bikes. You don't need a flatbed to carry 2 bikes to your destination (as you can see in the picture)
