• Trailer Hitch Recommendation and Towing Capacity for 2003 Toyota Camry
  I'd recommend confirming this with the owners manual of your 2003 Toyota Camry, but I was able to find a 2,000 lb towing capacity for your vehicle which should be adequate for a motorcycle trailer like you plan on towing. Now we have Class II hitches available for your vehicle like the Draw Tite part # 36336 which are rated higher than that at 3,500 lbs trailer weight, but you have to go with the lowest rated component in your tow setup as the overall capacity as you're only as strong...

• Trailer Hitch and Towing Capacity of a 2008 Chevrolet Impala
  From my research the 2008 Chevy Impala can tow up to a 1,000 pound trailer. You want the loaded trailer to stay under 1,000 pounds. As far as not scraping the ground I'm not sure what you're referring to but if the trailer is not overloaded and is loaded with the tongue weight between 10 and 15 percent of the trailer's weight then you shouldn't have any issues. You also want to make sure the trailer is level when towing. As for the hitch receiver I recommend the Draw-Tite # 36407. ...

• How to Determine the Rise/Drop of Class I Ball Mounts
  There's some specific measurements to take to determine the rise/drop of ball mount you need. Measure from the inside top of the receiver tube to the ground. Then, with the trailer jacked so that it's level, measure the distance from the underside of the coupler to the ground. The difference between the two measurements is the rise/drop needed. If the coupler height is taller than that of the receiver, you'll need a ball mount with a rise. If the coupler height is smaller than that of the...

• How to Carry a Mobility Scooter with a 1999 Toyota Camry
  I do have an option for you but the highest rated trailer hitch receiver they make for a 1999 Toyota Camry is a Class II, to my knowledge. I would be very skeptical that a Class III or IV exists due to the size of the vehicle.

This trailer hitch has a 300 lb tongue weight (TW) rating however, the vehicle is likely lower and if that is the case then this will need...
