Does Draw Tite or Curt Hitch for 2017 Toyota Sienna have Best Ground Clearance

Question:

Hi, I have a 2017 Toyota Sienna. Im comparing the Curt 13343 and the Drawtite 76112. There is some conflicting information in different videos and comments on your website about the ground clearance and distance from the bumper. Distance from the bumper is most important for me, as I have a folding bike rack. Can you tell me which one sticks out more? It would also be helpful to know which one has more ground clearance. Thanks!

When we installed the Curt hitch part # C13343 on a 2017 Toyota Sienna just like yours we found that from the top of the top of the hitch opening down to the ground measures 13 inches and then from the hitch pin hole out to the furthest point out on the bumper measures 4 inches.

When we installed the Draw Tite hitch part # 76112 on a similar 2017 Sienna we found that from the top of the hitch opening down to the ground measured 12 inches and from the center of hitch pin hole out to the rear bumper edge measures 4 inches just like the Curt. So the Curt has the best ground clearance.

I attached install videos for both hitches which show these dimensions as well.
