Hitch Fit and Trailer Wiring Recommendation for 2020 Subaru Forester
Question:
I have a 2020 Subaru Forester that I am looking for a hitch fit for. Which should I get? The plan is to tow my pop up camper so I'll need wiring too i guess.

The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2020 Subaru Forester is the EcoHitch part # 306-X7391 because this custom fit hitch has a concealed cross tube which gives it the most hidden look of all of the hitch options we carry. This also gives it the best ground clearance as well. I attached a picture of what it looks like installed for you to check out as well.
For trailer wiring the Tekonsha kit part # 118467 is the most reliable and easiest to install option so it's what I recommend as well. I attached a link to an install video for more info on this for you to check out as well.
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.
