I was also contemplating a hitch for a bike rack, but would have to find something non permanent that is hidden well.

I tow an 8' popup camper without any problem. It has electric brakes so it is not hard on the cars brakes. The trailer wt. is about 1300-1500 lbs loaded. The GM dealer said it is capable of 2000 lbs towing even though the book says 1000 lbs. I have a tranny cooler installed for added protection. The supercharger is there when i need it. I don't want a truck or a mini van. It is not like I camp every weekend all year long. The hitch is barely visible (if you take the reciever off)

Yes, it is an 06 GT, Why?
