Expert Reply:

The best trailer hitch for your 2024 Subaru Forester is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C47HR because it's the only option that has the crosstube hidden behind the bumper. This means your hitch looks more sleek and gives you better ground clearance.

While both hitches look and install very similarly, I recommend the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch #306-X7391 for your 2020 Subaru Forester over the Curt Hidden Hitch #C47HR. Both have the same towing weight capacity of 3,500 lbs, but EcoHitch…
