DON'T YOU BOTHER ME WITH LOGIC! I WANT IT WHETHER IT MAKES SENSE OR NOT!

It's true, though... You bring up good points. The mounting point would have to be built into the car, and I don't know that it would easy to do.

Besides, when the trailer isn't attached, I'd think it would be a bit un-aerodynamic to have a huge hitch assembly roof-rack thingy attached to your car...
