Question:
We bought a new camper. Our Nissan Frontier truck does not have a hitch. Where do we start to buy one or have it installed?

Expert Reply:
Hey Patricia, congrats on the new camper. To add a hitch to your 2022 Nissan Frontier, I recommend our etrailer item # e98869. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your truck with included hardware. It is a class III hitch, with a 2" receiver, that has a 5,000 lbs towing capacity, and a 500 lbs maximum tongue weight.
As far as getting it installed goes, if you go to the product page of the etrailer Hitch item # e98869 and scroll down below the pics on the left side you'll see a box that says, SCHEDULE AN INSTALLATION. Go ahead and click on it and it will take you to a page where you'll be able to enter your zip code. Once you do this you'll be connected to our network of reputable installers in your area.
