OK. I've mentioned this in another thread but wanted to get opinions. I have a tentative green light to buy an SS. But wife doesn't want 3 cars.

Going to get rid of the Nissan Armada, but I need to tow a jet ski with the SS or sell the Jet Ski. I don't really want to sell it.

I know the Aussies tow even bigger stuff with their Holdens but it seems Chevy wants you to buy a truck.

Think it will be ok to tow?

What equipment do I need to buy/install?

Think a hitch for the G8 would fit an SS? Wiring harness?

Hmm... void the warranty if I take it in with a hitch on it.

Only issue I saw with the hitch is that it disables the rear sensors when it's attached to a trailer and some people didn't like that.

Having a truck that doesn't disable the sensors with a trailer attached, I can say that it's not a bad feature, since mine beeps at me when backing up, unless I manually turn it off.
