Question:
I have a 2025 Honda Pilot EX-L and am looking at towing a 4x8 U-Haul cube from Cape Cod to N Texas. Can you let me know what I will need to install the hitch and trailer harness for the lights? Thank you, Tim

Expert Reply:
Hey Tim, are you moving to Texas? I've been to Texas a few times, and have always enjoyed it!
To tow your U-Haul cube you will just need a hitch like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e27KR, a wiring harness # C48ZV, and a ball mount # e67DR.
With this harness, and the 4-way on the trailer, you'll have lights so you can safely make the trek to Texas. Feel free to let us know how that goes, and if you have any other questions don't hesitate to leave a comment!

Hi Bryce, Thank you for this information. It was really helpful. How difficult is the wiring harness to install? Is something I can install on my own? Thanks again, Tim
