Or something like that.

Have you selected a brake controller yet?
Post your preferences here first before buying; the brake switch is now hidden in the vehicle and some controllers can have issues with the brake electric (bulb) system in the car.

Mention trailer lighting and the squirrels will be sent out on a nut extraction and retrieval mission.
LOL, you are funnier than usual on the pepper forum than the racing forum. i probably won't be towoing with pepper. i have been at ford, gmc, chevy truck dealer each of the last 5 days.... who knows. i may have s 2500HD by next month.

I would suggest contacting RL member/sponsor 'Alfie' at IRA Porsche. I'm sure he could provide additional information.
Alfie hasn't been with IRA for a year or so now.

Can you add a tow kit to a GTS? I have it on my CT and although I use my 6 l avalanche as a tow vehicle the CT does a superior job.

My GTS has the factory tow hitch. Here are a couple pictures I stole from an ebay ad I was watching:

I'm confused, I thought you were buying the black one you posted a few posts ago? They both look nice.

Excellent choice.
Great time to buy cold rolled American steel truck products.
Lots of great opinions/info on Ford/GMC/Dodge tow vehicles in the Racing/DE forum.

I have a black one. It's home now.

(cell phone pics)





I posted the white one because I didn't have my black one here at the house yet. That's why I mentioned in my post that it was from an Ebay ad I was watching (which failed to get any bids and was subsequently relisted - maybe my offer wasn't so bad? ).

Me, too.

I'm not a big fan of black, but I'm learning to live with it.

Question Fair 2009 used GTS Price ?
I'm looking at a manual trans (no PDCC and no towing package), but fully loaded with close to 7K miles on it (Porsche Dealer's Owner has been driving it (already been titled to the Dealership). MRSP was orig. $94K and asking for $70K with CPO / full warranty.

What's a fair market price for this used GTS?
