Question:

I have a 2019 Nissan Rouge SV All Wheel Drive. I want to pull small boat and a small trailer. What hitch and wiring harness do you recommend? I live in northern South Dakota, a cooler climate. I like the matte finish over glossy finish.

Expert Reply:

The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2019 Nissan Rogue SV is the etrailer hitch part # E98846 because it has the matte finish you want, it has plenty of towing capacity at 3,500 lbs, and it has a concealed crosstube which makes it a bit less visible.

For trailer wiring you'd want the Tekonsha kit part # 118480 as it does not require any splicing to install and it has the most reliable converter box we have. I attached an install video for this and the hitch 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.
