Question:
Hi, I am looking for 2020 Ford Explorer XLT hitch receiver and I wonder what is your recommendation, Draw Tite or Curt? Thank you in advance.

Expert Reply:
I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # CU78FR for a 2020 Ford Explorer. I features a custom bolt-on fit with no drilling or welding required. It also has a hidden design which means only the receiver tube will be shown therefore you get the best overall install look and most ground clearance. It also will still allow for the use of a hand free liftgate feature if present.
The same can all be said for the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76320 as well as they are the same for all intents and purposes but the Curt hitch is assembled in the USA whereas the Draw-Tite is not.
