Most Hidden Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2015 Subaru Forester
Published 11/03/2017 >
Question:
I am new to you site and need help deciding on a hitch for my 2015 Subaru Forester premier 2.5. I only want to do this once. I like the idea of the hidden bar 76182 but I dont see any installation pictures or video. I dont know enough about trailer hitches yet to make an informed decision so I am relying on you expertise. If I go with a regular unconcealed trailer hitch what would be the next best option? Which is stronger-a round or square tubed hitch? Thank you

Expert Reply:
The hitch we offer for your 2015 Subaru Forester that would be the least visible would be the Draw Tite part # 76182 that you referenced since only the hitch opening will hang below the rear bumper as opposed to the crosstube of the hitch.
I was able to track down a picture that shows the hitch installed for you to check out as well.
Square tube and round tube hitches are both about the same in terms of strength. One does not have a reputation as being superior to the other.
