Lexus GS with detachable tow hitch

For an absolute unkown reason, they aren't legal. Probably because they aren't certified or some BS like that.
But I run it on my cars because they're simply better and cheaper than what ever cast iron **** hitches we have here.

My brother towed a fully loaded 6x12 uhaul trailer, with a Honda CR-V that has a 2.4 liter engine, that makes a lot less power than the GS. It was a couple K over the manufacturers tow capacity for the CRV, from NY to Georgia, no issues. Just leave more space from the car in front of you for braking, also accelerating is slower so drive accordingly.

I don't like how close the ball is to the car. It also eliminates the possibility of hitch mount accessories.
That said, at least I wouldn't scrape 3 times a week which I do currently with my under the bumper tow bar...

I have the Hidden Hitch class 2. There was very little trimming. There is also a completely concealed hitch at www.execuhitch.com. With Execuhitch, all of their hitches can be used for towing even if they say it's just for a bike rack. The only difference is that a light kit is not included for a bike rack hitch but they will sell you a light kit if you ask for it.

This hitch looks perfect for a GS350. Can anyone share the brand of hitch and where it can be purchased online etc? Thx.
