Question:
Looking for an easy hitch to install in a 2012 GLK350. Ive seen the video on the Drawtite and seems straight forward. Are there any less expensive options that are just as easy to install with no drilling?

Expert Reply:
You basically have two options for a trailer hitch for your 2012 Mercedes GLK 350. The easy to install and slightly more expensive Draw Tite part # 75774, or the slightly cheaper but much more difficult to install Curt # C13142.
For the marginal cost difference and the much easier install I would go with the Draw Tite part # 75774. Which the price of this is right on par with what most hitches cost. To get some perspective you might check out the cost of the Mercedes hitch for your vehicle...
