Gen 1 Trailer Hitch From U-Haul

U-Haul's web site reports the following of interest to Gen 1 Prius owners: 2001-3 Class 1 hitch (photo deleted as it is generic, not the subject hitch).

• Max weight: 1,500 lbs,
• Part number: UHI24997CH
• Please note:
  U-Haul is the only known company with a hitch that will fit your vehicle. However, these trailer hitches are built as ordered, so please allow 20-30 business days to complete the manufacturing process.

The above note from U-Haul is technically correct.

Although Coastal Electronic Technologies once was the predominate supplier of trailer hitches for Gen 1 Priuses, the CET web site now states that their hitch is no longer in production, although CET hasn't modified their web page which actually offers their Gen 1 hitch. CET's web page will accept your order, process it, and then reject your order with the explanation that the hitch is no longer being manufactured.
