Towing...
Was wondering if anyone has towed with a C class before? I searched and found nothing...so I was hoping to get an answer from a tech. I have a 2010 c300 sport and really need to tow this 775 lb beast~> TIA

In the rest of the world, folks tow with C-class all the time. Mercedes sells the hitch and wiring kit.

In the USA, Mercedes fears our litigation tendancies so much that they do not approve towing except with the SUVs, i.e. ML, GL, R-class, GLK.

I think you will have to go aftermarket.

Go to uhaul.com. You can price it there and they will even install it for you.
