Hey, do you want to tow a Trailer with a Prius?
http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/...guid=101046121
i set up this group after getting a dozen or so emails from the US, Canada and the UK about my experiences towing a small trailer across the USA three times last summer.
so, if anyone asks you, yes it is possible. i did it, and so have several other folks i've been corresponding with.
many of the questions have been things like "how much can you tow?" and "where do i get the parts and accessories i'll need to let the Prius tow the trailer?"
i've put a few answers here at GH in some other threads, and some answers on my own site at http://www.plusaf.com/prius/prius.htm
if you're interested, hit those links and tell your stories.
just don't flat-out tell anyone to not do it...

We have a hitch on our Prius I, but never towed anything yet, just for bikes. We have hauled a trunk full of large paving stones up steep hills without any problems, so I have no doubt it could tow a small trailer.

three C1 cabinets plus some other accessories: likely about 4-500 pounds, and the car wasn't noticeably slower than normal!
i love my Prius!
