Question:
Im trying to decide between these 2 hitches for my 2015 Civic Sedan Ex. The Curt hitch recommends a support strap. The Eco-Hitch doesn't not say anything about using a support strap. Why is this? I understand what the support strap does, but it seems strange that on 2 very similar hitches, only 1 recommends a strap. Is there a reason for this? Does the Curt hitch stick out farther than the Eco-Hitch? Is the Curt made of thinner material? Or is it just Curt trying to cover their butts in case someone does something stupid?

Expert Reply:
For your 2015 Honda Civic sedan, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11391 which is a confirmed fit. Curt has a 200-pound capacity and requires the # 18050 stabilization strap to provide extra support for when the vehicle goes over rough pavement or experiences a sudden shock like hitting a pothole. It is an extra safety measure.
You could also consider the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 306-X7235. This hitch does not require the extra strap, has a 300-pound tongue weight, and has the more versatile 2" receiver opening.
I have included information for each of these for you to check out.
