Question:
Hi! I’m looking at your CURT hitch for a 2021 RAV4 prime. Can you tell me the clearance on the installed hitch? I’ve heard sometimes they can hit speed bumps or steep driveways. Thanks!

Hey Alyssa, it looks like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13416 sits 12" from the ground to it's installed position. So I guess if you had a really steep driveway, you could run the risk of it scraping.
What are you planning on hauling with this bad boy? If there is anything else I can do for you, please feel free to let me know!
