Which Trailer Hitch Has Better Ground Clearance for a 2011 Toyota Sienna Curt or Draw Tite
Question:
For 2011 Toyota Sienna - TRAILER HITCH Comparing Curt #C12065 and DrawTite #36513 Which one fits the closest to the bumper. The one with the LEAST open vertical space between the top of the receiving hitch to the bottom of the plastic exterior rear bumper of the car. Thanks, Any question let me know. I await.

Expert Reply:
It's not by much but it looks like the Draw Tite Hitch part # 36513 tucks a little bit closer to the rear bumper than the Curt part # C12065. The difference is right around an inch. Another advantage the Draw Tite has is that it doesn't require the use of a stabilizer strap like the Curt does when carrying a non-supported load like a bike rack.
I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.
