Having a tow bar installed onto your vehicle only seems ungainly or unsightly at first, but if you consider the practical applications that a tow bar can provide for your vehicle, then you won’t hesitate on actually getting one installed. Tow bars look sort of out-of-place for sports cars and smaller cars, but they are a welcome sight on trucks, vans, and other, more ‘rugged’ looking vehicles. Not only are tow bars an excellent means to lug something as simple as a driver who ran out of gas or who has experience transmission failure, it can also be used to literally convert your vehicle into a trailer truck!

But those aren’t the only reasons to have a tow bar fitted onto your vehicle. What are some of the other reasons? Well, if you’re a fan of trailing, camping, boating or if you’re the adventurous sort who likes to go out on long driving adventures, having a tow bar also helps when you need to increase or maximize your vehicle’s living space by towing a camper trailer. It can even serve as a good and sturdy means to allow your car to clear road debris without putting too much toll on the bumper of the vehicle.
