Question:
What's the most concealed hitch for a 2023 Ford Escape?
asked by: Gloria
Expert Reply:
The most concealed hitch for your 2023 Ford Escape is going to be the etrailer Hitch item # e89YR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Ford with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 3,500 lbs towing capacity, and a 525 lbs maximum tongue weight.
I really like the etrailer hitch because the crosstube installs behind your rear bumper cover leaving only the 2" receiver visible. This not only looks better but it also helps with ground clearance.
If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C59236 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.
I recommend using the No-Drill Mount Bracket item # 18136 and the item # C42CR to secure the 4-way connector to your hitch. This will put it in an easy to reach spot and prevent the risk of it falling onto the road.
