Still no tow hook for '14???
For a car that is produced for the track enthusiast...why is there still not a tow hook incorporated into the car???
My mom just bought a new jetta that has a cutout for a hook with a burly screw in that is kept in the glove compartment. Why is this soooo difficult for chevy? |

I am pretty sure that all German cars come that way. I believe it is a requirement there. I have never seen an american car with anything similar from the factory. It would not be cost effective for GM to incorporate it since only a small percentage of owners will actually track their cars. IMO.

...I hope so...that would be nice.
And I am sorry, but you can not say "cost cutting" is the reason for no tow hook. This is not a spark or sonic...its a ZL1!!! Call me crazy I guess...but the engineers who made a track based car that warranties track based mechanical issues...should probably have thought to include a track based necessity as simple as a tow hook. |
