The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2011 Chevy Traverse is the Draw Tite hitch part # 75528 because it has the best capacity, is a 2 inch size which is most popular size for hitch accessories, and it installs very easily. I attached a video that shows it installed on a similar 2011 Traverse for you to check out as well.
For trailer wiring to allow your vehicle to control the taillights of the trailer you'd want the T-One kit part # 118450 because it installs without requiring any hardwiring. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.
Since you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
