Expert Reply:
Yes, we carry the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class II - 1-1/4" # C12100 which is a confirmed fit for your 2018 Subaru Forester.
I do however recommend going with a 2" option like the # e98839 though so that you can tow a wider range of accessories. Most bike racks, cargo carriers, ballmounts, etc. all require a 2" opening so it's best to get the larger hitch and use a reducer like # e63YR when necessary.
If you plan on towing anything with lights then you'll also want to install the Tekonsha T-One Connector Wiring Harness # 118467. This wiring harness will plug into your tail lights for an easy installation and allow you to transfer your brake and turn signals from your vehicle to the lights on your trailer or hitch mounted accessory.
