Anyone look for a trailer hitch yet?
I'm still debating when to buy a Type-S. I will possibly look for a trailer hitch so I can tow my Prelude to car shows if I decide to go from Maryland to Las Vegas this summer. Anyone look for or buy a hitch for this kinda stuff?

I don't think the tow limit on our CL is high enough to tow another car.

Well I was curious. I have a Prelude that just won't die and if I bought a Type-S I would consider towing the Prelude to the distant car shows and meets instead of taking my chances and driving long distances.I'm not gonna be towing boats or anything crazy. I'm a pure-bred Acura/Honda fan and would never try to abuse a fine car.

If you want to tow something, get a Chevy Blazer or something. Maybe a year old one. I don't think the CL-S or P was designed for that in mind. Just get an old Blazer/Bronco whatever and use it as a beater.
My old boss did that. He had a new (at that time) Legend Coupe and a 1980's Crown Victoria. This guy made 120k a year and drove this heap around all the time (except the Summer). Its always nice to have a disposable car around. I wish I did. Parts are cheap, and so is the insurance.

2001 CL Type S.
No spoiler. No NAV either. No fat chics.
no "phat" chics either.
