That may be a challenge. I doubt that a WDH would work on the Tesla. Using a drawbar with a 4-6" lift on a hitch that has a 3500# rating and 350# tongue wt rating is really not a good idea. Those lift/drop extensions place a lot of torque on the trailer hitch and lower the hitch rating dramatically. I had a 6,000# rated hitch break while towing a 4,000# trailer with a 6" drop hitch. The insurance company refused payment on the claim (the trailer hit another car) because of the drop hitch. They claimed that the 6" drop lowered the rating on my trailer hitch by 40%.
If you are going to tow with the Tesla, you may be better off towing bow down. It's really not a big deal. Towing bow up, is a big deal.
