Multi-Puropse Ball Mount and Class III Trailer Hitch for a 2005 Saturn Vue
Question:
I need a hitch to fit a 2005 Saturn Vue with a towing/carrier combo. I want to tow a small trailer and carry two-four bicycles. Can you please give me some info on the type of hitch I will need?

Expert Reply:
I would recommend going with a 2 inch, Class III trailer hitch for your 2005 Saturn Vue, like the Curt Class III , item # 13591. In addition, I recommend the Curt Multi-Purpose Ball mount, item # D210, that you referenced. This adapter will give you a 2-1/4 inch drop ball mount and a 2 inch receiver that you can slide your bike rack into. Keep in mind that this ball mount receiver has a 350 lb tongue weight capacity. This means that the the weight in the upper receiver cannot exceed 350 lbs and that weight and the trailer tongue weight cannot exceed 750 lbs.
I have provided a link to the install instructions for you to look over.
