  Hey Sam, thanks for reaching out!

• Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2019 Ram 1500
  For the New Body Style of the 2019 Ram 1500, I recommend the Curt # C15005 which will fit whether you have the factory hitch or the Class III tow bumper. This is a strong Class V trailer hitch which exceeds the max towing rating of your Ram 1500. Even though this is the case it is worth noting that this will not increase the weight rating of your pickup so that will be the limiting factor. You should already have a 7-Way on your Ram, but you may consider swapping out your current connection...

• Gross Towing Weight Capacity and Recommended Hitch for a 2017 Subaru Outback
  Thanks so much for purchasing your hitch from us! I understand the confusion associated with towing weight capacity. There are many factors that contribute to the gross towing weight capacity of a vehicle. In many cases, it is not necessarily the size of a vehicle alone that determines the rating. This can be misleading. Manufacturers produce vehicles with varying structural integrities, and these factors have a large influence on a vehicle's towing capacity. With that being said, through...

• What Ramp Bike Rack Solution do You Recommend for My Aventon Adventure E-Bike?
  I have a great bike rack solution for you. Unfortunately, since your Aventon Adventure E-Bike weighs 73 pounds, it exceeds any maximum weight capacity of a bike rack with an integrated ramp option.

I would also agree with this statement as they do look very similar though, but since they have...
