I'm very disappointed that the tow hitch isn't available on the base model and the Big Bend model just doesn't have any features I want.

Can anyone confirm that there isn't something fundamentally wrong with the base model that would prevent me adding one after purchase?

Thank you!

We’ve listed this as an issue for the base model and believe it’s a mistake on B&P

It was originally announced that the tow package was *not* available on the base... so not a B&P error.

To answer the OP’s question:

The same info I mentioned above included a note that fleet sale Bases could be optioned with that tow package... which implies there’s nothing fundamentally preventing it and an aftermarket hitch would be an option.

Ok. That’s good info to know. Perhaps I can label the tow package on Base as ‘highly desired’

They have a lot of those ways built into the trim levels and restrictions.
See ZackDanger’s post about the tow package on Base Model.

I've seen hitches on everything from corvettes to Honda civic and VW bug, no reason one couldn't be done that i could imagine

Yes, +1 for highly desired.
