Question:
2015 Tacoma. I’m looking for a super lightweight basic trailer hitch to be used mostly for a bike rack and steps into my truck camper. I have a haul master trailer that I’ll use mostly to move my Truck camper around my property when I store it. I need to keep my payload low so that’s why I’m looking for something very light. Thanks for any guidance.

Hey John! All of the hitches for your 2015 Tacoma weigh approximately 38 lbs so there isn't one that stands out over the others in terms of weight. Personally, I recommend the etrailer # e98850. The our hitch has a unique matte black finish so it looks sharp and does a better job hiding dirt and scratches. Keep in mind, all of the available aftermarket hitches are designed for a Tacoma that does NOT have a factory installed hitch. If you need anything else feel free to reach out in the comments below.
