Expert Reply:

Visually speaking, there's very little difference between the etrailer brand # e95ZR and the Curt # C13427. The Curt uses a glossy finish, while the etrailer brand uses a matte finish that many feel is less noticeable. Both hitches have a 5000 lb towing capacity and they each have a 750 lbs tongue weight capacity.

I'd personally choose the etrailer # e95ZR. The only difference between the two is the powder coat finish. If the level of sheen on the finish isn't a consideration for you, you can choose the least expensive of the two and not need to feel like you've sacrificed anything by choosing the lower cost option.

If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like part # CU94FR, a ball mount like part # 40346 and a hitch pin like # PC3. For a trailer ball, use # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball.
