Question:

Do you recommend the Curt or Draw-Tite for my 2025 Lexus RX 500h? The Draw-Tite has a higher tongue weight capacity but I wanted to check and see if that matters or not?

Hey Dave, thanks for reaching out!

I actually recommend picking up the Curt Hitch # C29VV over the Draw-Tite # DT73QR for your 2025 Lexus RX 500h. Even though the tongue weight is lower, it matches right up with the weight rating of your Lexus so even if you went with the Draw-Tite you would still be limited to the 350 lbs of tongue weight.

The Curt hitches tend to have more consistent quality so the tradeoff of the lower tongue weight is worth it in this case.
