  • I reached out to my contact at EcoHitch to see if they have seen this issue before with the EcoHitch # 306-X7201 on your Tesla and if they have any suggestions. My contact did say that the Tesla rear bumper has quite a bit of tolerance from the factory, so it's something they occasionally see but more often there's enough clearance available to hook up safety chains. With that being said, clearance is obviously an issue for you based on the picture you attached. My contact said they have...

  • Roof Rack Similar to Whispbar Recommendation for 2014 Tesla Model S with Sunroof
  • I have a solution that will work well for you but Whispbar was actually bought out by Yakima. So to get the most similar roof rack to a Whispbar for your 2014 Tesla Model S with a sunroof, you'd want the Yakima JetStream roof rack part numbers # Y00426, # Y53TR, and # Y00233. With this you'd have a very high quality roof rack like you are wanting, that has aero shaped bars which will allow you to have minimal wind noise.

  • Recommended 4 Bike Rack For Limited Ground Clearance On Tesla Model S
  • You are right that with the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7201 installed on your Tesla Model S you have very little ground clearance but while I have another option for you, the Yakima HoldUp Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # Y02443-2 can not be tilted up to raise the rear of the carrier for increased ground clearance. Instead I recommend taking a look at the Saris SuperClamp EX 4 Bike Platform Rack - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount - Tilting # SA4026F which...

  • Konig K-Summit Tire Chain that Fits Tire Size 285/40R19 of 2021 Tesla Model S
  • Since your 2021 Tesla Model S has the tire size of 285/45R19 we know the K-Summit chains part # TH02230K55 are a fit since they are fit by tire size and not by vehicle. I am sure it's just a matter of Konig's site not having the correct tire size info for your vehicle at the time you checked.

  • Storage Cover Recommendation for a Forest River R-Pod 195
  • According to my information your R-Pod 195 has an overall length of 22' which is a bit larger than most R-Pods. Because of this you'll need to use more of a standard cover and for that I recommend the Olefin from Adco: - Adco Olefin HD RV Cover for Travel Trailers up to 24' # AD67ZR This is the best storage cover and will do a great job protecting your R-Pod

  • 2 inch Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2015 Tesla Model S
  • For your 2015 Tesla Model S we have the EcoHitch part # 306-X7201 that you referenced which has a 2 inch opening and a 2,000 lb trailer towing capacity. There's no drilling require to install this but it is a more in-depth install compared to most trailer hitches. Best option would be to find a Tesla dealer local to you and have them install it. For trailer wiring you'd then want the ZCI kit part # 119250KIT which doesn't require any hardwiring. If you wanted to do some towing you might...
