Question:

I'm curious what you think is the best overall trailer hitch receiver for my 2019 Volkswagen Golf? It is the R model so I think there's some specific fits, correct?

Expert Reply:

The best overall trailer hitch receiver for your 2019 Volkswagen Golf R is the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7332 because this is the only hitch for this vehicle which has a 2 inch receiver, which is important because it give you a much wider range of accessories such as bike racks and cargo carriers to choose from.

For example, as of this writing there are currently five times as many cargo carriers that fit a 2" hitch than a 1-1/4" hitch and three times as many bike racks for a 2" hitch compared to a 1-1/4" hitch. So you would have less access to accessories with a hitch other than the # 306-X7332.
