Installing the Curt 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver on a 2025 Subaru Crosstrek- Video
Hi, this is Scott with etrailer and today we're taking a look at and installing our CURT class three hitch on our 2025 Subaru Crosstrek.

Other than that, another nice thing about it is, it's gonna have a really good gloss finish on it. more

A Closer Look at the Yakima SkinnyWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket on a 2025 Subaru Crosstrek- Video
How's it going, Subaru owners Today, we're gonna take a look at the Yakima SkinnyWarrior on our 2025 Subaru Crosstrek.

Hey there, neighbors. Kevin here with etrailer, and today we're gonna be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Ecohitch trailer hitch receiver here on our 2024 Subaru Crosstrek.

This specific hitch is going to be from Ecohitch, and they have a removable receiver, so that way you can have a completely hidden look anytime when you are done, and you don't want to have that trailer hitch receiver tube in the way. The cross tube itself is going to sit inside of our fascia, so once we pop out the one bolt on the side of this, we can just drop it right out, and chuck it in the back of our car, and be ready to go. This trailer hitch is made of all recycled metal, so you are staying green when you purchase this hitch. more

Mount: Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver on a 2024 Subaru Crosstrek- Video
Hey, guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today, we've got a 2024 Subaru Crosstrek and we're gonna be taking a look at and I'm gonna show you how to install the Curt Class III Two-inch Hitch Receiver. Adding a hitch receiver to the back of your Crosstrek is gonna allow you to carry bike racks, cargo carriers, or maybe even pull a small trailer. The Crosstrek is a very versatile vehicle, but the space inside can sometimes be limited. So that's why getting bulkier items, like a cooler or some luggage, onto a cargo rack, or if you're wanting to take bikes to and from the trail, getting them outta your car if you can even fit 'em inside of your vehicle. A lot of times people don't think about, you know, they can put their bikes inside their car when they leave for the trail, but once they're done riding, you have to be very careful to not get your bike covered in mud so you don't have to stick it back inside your car. more

Best 2023 Subaru Crosstrek Trailer Wiring Options- Video
Hey, everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today, on our 2023 Subaru Crosstrek, we're gonna be taking a look at our best trailer wiring options. We're gonna be looking at three different kits today. So right here we have the Curt wiring kit, this one is the Tekonsha, and this one here is the Hopkins kit.

If you're someone that isn't sure what they're gonna be doing just yet, or you know, you're gonna be doing towing, using a lot of different accessories and things like that, the Class 3 style hitches have the larger two-inch by two-inch opening. more
