The trailer hitch we offer that is designed to fit your 2016 Titan is part # C15306. This is a Class V trailer hitch and it has a 2-inch receiver opening.
You will need a 7-way harness to plug the trailer into. I recommend part # N40975. This plugs into the factory plug located behind the rear bumper. This will give you a working 4-way and 7-way connector. This kit also includes the required relays for the harness.
You will also need a brake controller for your Titan. I recommend the P3, part # 90195. This is one of our most popular because it is easy to install and operate. To make the installation extremely easy you will also need part # 3050-P. This is a plug-in harness. You just plug one end into the back of the brake controller and the other end plugs into the port under the dashboard.
Since you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
