Question:
Hello, Im looking for a hitch to install on a Ford flex 2016 AWD 2 exhausts. just for a 3 bicycle rack or maximum a trailer to town a motorcycle. What do you suggest that I can install by myself without mods on the car.

Expert Reply:
Hey Gustavo, we have the etrailer hitch part # e52AR that is a confirmed fit for your 2016 Ford Flex with dual exhaust. This would be a really great option for carrying a bike rack or towing a trailer. For trailer wiring you'd then want the Tekonsha part # 118472 which installs easily. Both of these do not require modifications to the vehicle. Do you have a bike rack already?

Actually, I don't have a bike rack yet. Ideally, I’m looking for a platform-style rack suitable for transporting one electric mountain bike and one regular bike. It’s important that the rack doesn’t hold the bikes only by their frames.
