I'm a total novice when it comes to cars and now that I'm living on my own after college I'm trying to make sense of car upkeep myself. Overall my 2000 Jetta seems to be running well and gets pretty decent gas milage. (I don't keep track but my gas bills are never awful)

| WE MUST BRING BACK THE 55 MPH SPEED LIMIT | 16 Sep 2005 17:25 GMT | 144 |
These soaring gas prices make it a 2 + 2 is 4. We simply have to cut back on consumption. And the 55 would also save thousands of lives a year just like it did in the 70s.

To what part of the car frame are the hitches mounted? How much down (tongue) weight will they carry? Would it be safe to lift a car using the hitch as the lifting point? Thanks,
