Hitch with Best Ground Clearance on a 2019 Honda Odyssey

Question

Question:

Hi, I was interested in a hitch. I watched your video and am interested in the hidden hitch 76170. My question is: Does this hitch have less clearance than the C13370? In the video it says that it has less clearance which doesn't make sense to me. Can you please clarify.

I went out to the warehouse and took some measurements of the three hitches you mentioned for your 2019 Honda Odyssey and from what I find the # 76170 hitch actually has about a 1/4 inch less ground clearance than the # C13370.

The # 76170 is actually a much different design than the other hitch since the receiver tube is under the crosstube. This makes less of the hitch visible under the van's bumper which is the style I like to recommend. I like when all you see under the rear bumper is the receiver tube.
