Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendation for 2010 Dodge Charger
Question:
I was wondering what would be the best trailer hitch for my 2010 Dodge Charger would be. I was assuming the class III would be the best, but was unsure as the tongue weight wouldnt be anywhere near a 9-15 of the weight Im towing. The trailer is a simple 5x10 and I would only be towing a Harley Davidson. Thanks!

Whenever there's a Class III hitch available for a vehicle like your 2010 Dodge Charger like the Draw Tite part # 76145 which is a confirmed fit it's the way to go. This would be your best option for towing a small trailer.
For trailer wiring then the part # 118404 would be a great option that's also confirmed fit.
Since you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
