I've put it off for years. I've expressly put it off for 18 months since I obtained the motorized (power) wheelchair that was my mom's.

I'm having a hitch put onto the back of my car tomorrow morning.
I haven't decided if I will tow a small trailer, or try and find a bumper carrier that will support a class II hitch. I will have all but the drop bar and lights put on tomorrow, and then once I am sure of what I have, I can shop for what's available.

The hitch mounted carrier, for a class II, is extremely difficult to find because so many aren't made to carry much weight, due to my car being a FWD.

I have found a site with a nice trailer kit, 40"x50" that would tow directly behind the car. It would work for the chair and any camp equipment too, should I get back into the outdoors.

I can buy the light and bar at home depot for much less than they will want to hook it up for me tomorrow, along with the hitch itself. (They want another $100 for the light and drop bar.)

But, I'm finally getting this part done. THEN I will make the next decision once I have the specs to it in writing in my hot little hands.

At least I hope I will...
