I have a 2020 GMC Acadia and need a trailer hitch for my old bike rack. What is the difference between the draw-tite and curt?

Expert Reply:
Both the Draw-Tite part # 76023 and Curt part # C13293 trailer hitches available for the 2020 GMC Acadia are great choices however there are some differences that set them apart. The Curt hitch is easier to install and more visible on the vehicle while the Draw-Tite is requires a longer, more invasive install process but has a hidden cross tube for a cleaner look.
I personally recommend the Draw-Tite over the Curt because once installed it looks nicer. I have attached a video of the installation process of both hitches so you can take a look for yourself. The Curt hangs below the bumper while the Draw-Tite installs through the bumper. Since it installs through the bumper, it sits up higher compared to the Curt for better ground clearance as you can see in the accompanying photos.
