Thanks for the vote of confidence n8. The Europe comment sums it up very well. I've seen little Toyotas towing big double horse trailers!
However I'm still confused by what the car can handle versus what is printed on the hitch. If yours is a factory Saab hitch, do you know what max weight is printed on it and does it look like how I described ours? In addition to the bolt pattern previously described, the whole thing is probably only 18" wide compared to the Drawtite on our 1999 sedan which is almost as wide as the car, looks very beefy, and bolts right to the frame ahead of the bumper mounts.
I'm quite sure the wagon can handle the tow, but I'm concerned about the specs on the hitch. It would be a real drag to have the hitch ripped right off the car:)
