Trailer Hitch Recommendation with 1,000 lb Tongue Weight Capacity on Ford E-250
Updated 05/16/2017 | Published 05/15/2017 >
Question:
I have a 2013 ford e-250 van that i will be putting a hitch on. it is a work truck that i go in and out of the back a lot daily and tow rarely. i need a hitch that is not going to stick out and knock me in the shins every time i enter or exit the rear. can you help me find a receiver that might fit my needs. i actually wanted the 1,000 pound tongue weight but the video showed it sticking out something like 5. thanks

Expert Reply:
All of the hitch fits we have for your 2013 Ford E-250 Cargo Van are going to stick out a decent amount behind the rear bumper. There isn't a way around it so if you wanted the higher capacity hitch the part # 41906 would be a great option since it has a 1,000 lb tongue weight capacity.
