I got my last hitch online from http://www.hitch-web.com.
Customer service was good and shipped quickly.

You'll probably need a class 1 hitch with a 1.25" receiver.
You might also want to talk to U-haul and see what they require for using one of their trailers.

I bought a Miata and MR2 hitch from hitch-web. Both times, great service and the installation instructions are top-notch.

I got two made by Draw-tite from www.1800hitchit.com for the Cavaliers with good directions at a decent price. $90 each IIRC.

I ordered mine through these folks. Saved me about $20-$30 over the other sites that carried the same part.
