Haynes' hitch looks sturdy and sensible.  Much more so than the hitch which
is bolted to my tow loops.  The loops are sturdy in themselves; but I
wonder if their welds will fatigue or otherwise give way.  I have a
2-position bike rack installed.  Does anyone know just how much the tow
loops can support?
