Conner: Hey everyone, Conner here today at etrailer.com. We're going to be taking a look at the stealth hitch here for our 2017 BMW M3. So this is what our hitch is going to look like while we have the receiver tube installed, and we can use it for our bike rack or our cargo carrier, whatever we may be wanting to use it at the time. However, the great thing about this particular hitch here is that when we're not using our bike rack or cargo carrier, we can actually remove this receiver tube rather easily, and we're going to have a completely factory like appearance, which is going to be important for our M3 owners here.So we're going to do is we're simply going to remove the receiver tube, and if we reach right up under the bumper here, there's going to be a very easy to use locking knob. You're just going to simply turn that. Once that's down it'll disengage our receiver tube here. more

Best 2014 Bmw X5 Trailer Hitch Options

Today you're going to be taking a look at the best hitch options for your 2014 BMW X5.On top, we have a class three curt. Below that we're going to have a class three draw-tite and then finally down here the bottom we're going to have our class three eco-hitch.If it we're me looking for a hitch for my BMW, I would go with the eco-hitch for a few different reasons. I really like the finish on it. It has more of a textured finish rather than just the high gloss and also it is going to be completely hidden behind the bumper, and we have the option to remove the receiver tube if you want to.But let's take a closer look at all three of our hitches and go over some of the features.Now the first thing you'll notice is that all of our hitches are going to share a very similar design and that's because each one of them, the cross tube is going to be meant to be hidden behind the bumper, and all we're going to see is the receiver tube sticking out, so we're not going to be taking away from the looks on our BMW.But the eco-hitch has taken it a step farther and if we come and look at the receiver tube here, you'll notice there's going to be a bolt. This bolt is going to hold our receiver tube in place. Now whenever we're not towing, or we're not using our hitch, we're going to remove the bolt and pull the receiver tube out and then it will be like it's not there and have no outward appearance change on our BMW.Here we have our draw-tite installed on our BMW and you can still see it has a really nice look and this is about what the curt's going to look like as well. more
