Hi, i have a 2018 buick tourx and i was wondering if my 2006 tab trailer 1600lbs would be ok. I am new to towing and am unsure.

Looks like your 2018 Buick Regal TourX has a towing capacity of 1,000 lbs so you'd need either a smaller trailer or a larger tow vehicle to tow your trailer that weighs 1,600 lbs.

The Draw Tite hitch part # 36661 that you referenced is a confirmed fit though and would be a great hitch to use. It's a Class II with more capacity than your vehicle so it would easily handle up to 1,000 lbs.

For trailer wiring the kit you'd want is the Curt part # C56389 which is easy to install and very reliable.

For a ball mount you'd then want the part # 36071 and hitch balls part # 19258 for a 2 inch ball or part # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch ball.
