axulsuv Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Hi all ; I'm thinking about a TC for my next purchase to replace my Suzuki ... I have a question regarding towing with one . I currently tow my trials bikes behind my SX4 Suzuki crossover (that suzuki USA states you can not tow with ... )But I got a Factory Suzuki equalizer hitch from a contact in Austrailia , where they advertise the sx4 towing a boat and / or up to 3200lbs w/brakes ... My triton trailer and bike together weigh about 500lbs max. loaded for a weekend . I know there are plenty of hitches available for the TC , but I'm curious as to how they perform in the real world ? And one other benefit I'm thinking the TC will provide me is the ability to save on the $50.00 to $100.00 a nite hotel rooms too on my weekend riding events . Any info would be apriciated . And I've attached a photo of what a TC would be towing ... Thanks , Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axulsuv Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 Hello again ... , Still thinking about a transit , I have one more question that hopefully will get a response . Are the 2nd row seats in a 2012 xlt wagon easily removable ? I know they fold up , but what is involved in taking them out ? I've got 3 kids so I have to look at the daily driver side of the van too , not just my weekend adventures Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyvideo Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 There are some posts further down the forum of people pullung trailers that are large. You can just unscrew the back seats from what I read. It uses Torx head screws. I'm thinking like 1 of them, but I forget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axulsuv Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 Thanks for the reply , But due to a really rude /overall bad experience and a bizarre interest rate proposed to someone with a 830 credit score , I went to the local nissan dealer and got a great deal on a NV1500 cargo van @ 3.9% interest on the loan of 17k ... And have you folks seen the NV200 that is due out in 2013 ??? See YA , Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtn Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 And have you folks seen the NV200 that is due out in 2013 ??? It's available here. I have cheked it out and it's a wierd machine. Narrow, long, upright seating position to the point of being uncomfortable. Too much like the 90s vans. Large boot tho. Doesn't look to be a good seller.
