Can a civic pull a small trailer?

I’ve installed a hitch on most cars I’ve owned, even those that aren’t recommended for towing…great for bike racks etc. and “towing”. It’s like “Crocodile Dundee”; and that’s not a knife, now this is a real knife…350 lbs, now that isn’t towing.
Proper hitch installation for the proper tongue weight is your real problem. If it can’t be done appropriately…don’t do it.
