Use http://www.imageshack.us/ it's free, allows direct linking to images, and even builds the link string for you.

depends on what kind of trailer. I'd buy a Z trailer for wheels n' tires or maybe for like hood pins or a repair kit of some kind. But only to a track or something.

No more than 500lbs. I can't tow the ski which would be cool if I didn't have to back in water. But not an option.

What kind of trailer(Boat, Jet-ski, something smaller)?

I've heard of plenty of people hooking up a trailer to sports cars for auto-X. They put some tools, a full sized spare tire, a cooler and a bike in the trailer(nothing too heavy), that way they can have this stuff handy for the event.

Although a trailer hitch will look like **** on a G/Z, it's better than a scratched rear bumper from a biker rack, or a torn up interior from sharp cargo.

Here's the picture I finally got it uploaded



I was talking to the guy and i was like "wow never seen that before", he goes "oh it has plenty of power" I said I know it does but i didnt know they even made hitches for the Z, he said it was custom made and its a lot more driving it to tow things than a truck which he traded in. I kind of minded my business after that, then I said "sucks having to put premium in with these gas prices nowadays" he goes "oh I put regular and it runs fine, they just say put premium to cover themselves and find an easy way to void your warranty if something goes wrong", i just ended it there and left for work. Hope you enjoy the pic haha

Somebody run the plate on the trailer, find the owner, check their garage for a blue Z, then confiscate it. What a travesty...

I wonder if he had AT or MT? It seems that AT would be much better suited for pulling a load.

And about the premium gas thing... next thing you know the guy will be saying "oh, you don't have to change oil until it's black."

Huh? Yeah I guess I should be a more sensitive and accepting Z owner. Thank you for helping me keep in touch with my feminine side. With your help I have finally decided to fulfill my life long dream of having a Z-snowplow. In Florida.
