They do it in South Africa as an option with a sportpack, it's the electric type, it's also an option for the new X5/6 M.

The US hitch is crap, the Hayman Reese towbar made on behalf of BMW in Australia is a much better towbar. The finish is cleaner and the plug is hidden underneath.

That's all great but there's no way his US dealer will install anything but the BMW USA hitch.

Thanks for taking the time to post the links. If I bought instead of leased then I would not think twice about going that route. I will go to my dealer soon and ask their opinion. (which we all know is like asking a polar bear what the weather in costa rica is like)
