I was just going by the fact that a class 1 hitch is rated to 2000 lbs gross trailer weight and a class 2 hitch is rated to 3500 lbs gross trailer weight, which is the tow limit listed in the 9-5 Sportcombi owner's manual (for trailer with its own brakes). I do not expect to ever tow that large a load, but I thought it made sense to get a stronger hitch.
Besides, I just checked and even renting a tow dolly at U-Haul requires you to have a class 2 hitch.
