Tow package - yes or no?

[Tellynewbie2022]

So I’m putting my order in Monday and after reading through forums i feel like I need to add the tow package?
I know that I will never use it but I’m reading posts that say suspension and the ride is better with it?
Thoughts?

I ordered it in case I had a lot of cargo. I doubt I would ever actually tow anything. But I ended up buying a car that came in sooner with no tow package.

I figure its good for a bike rack or a cargo holder and worth it. I doubt I would tow anything with mine.

YES! It's integrated with the car and will never work or look as good if you have to get one aftermarket.

ABSOLUTELY GET IT - as gman1868 stated, if you order the tow package at purchase time you get the integrated self-leveling rear suspension that will work when towing or just loading your cargo area with heavy material. If you're thinking of holding off and adding a hitch at a later date, you won't be able to install the self-leveling suspension.

Absolutely do it. I wanted it mainly for the level ride feature. I hate it when your loaded up and dragging ass….. and I wanted the suspension to adjust. We tested it out on a trip and sure enough it works well.

We ordered the tow package mostly for the hitch adapter (for bikes) and being able to tow if needed (no towing plans currently). Also have the Prestige pkg (EX AWD) w/ the LED headlights. We've noticed that the headlights seem to be a little high, and we get high beam flashed by other people from time to time.

There is an adjustment for the headlights. Search it on youtube and you should find it. It requires a socket to lower them a bit.

Thanks for the info, I'll look for it. "I've got sockets and wrenches aplenty" (Little Mermaid - sorry, couldn't resist)

[updated] Here's a video I found:

As it turns out the required socket is a Torx T60 3/8" drive. And I don't have one of those. Yet.
