Question:

I’m not planning to tow, but we’re always running out of space for luggage on family trips. Would this hitch still be useful? 25 honda crv

Expert Reply:

Definitely, Sarah - even if you never tow, the TowSmart # TS67ZR is one of the most useful upgrades you can add to your 2025 CR-V. It lets you use a hitch-mounted cargo carrier or swing-away storage box, adding hundreds of pounds of capacity outside your cabin. It’s safer and easier to load than a roof box, which is limited to around 150 lbs total, and keeps your center of gravity low for better handling. The matte black powder coat also looks great and holds up well to road grime.

I'd take a look at the 39x25 Inno Cargo Carrier with Portable Cargo Box for 2" Hitches # IN54MR. Inno is always of great quality, and this one is special since it can be removed and rolled around like luggage with the built-in wheels and handle.

If you ever decide to tow later, just add the T-One Wiring Harness # 118741 and Ball Mount Kit # 989891 - you’ll be set.

What kind of road trips do you take - camping, sports tournaments, or cross-country runs?
