• 2022 Honda Odyssey Recommendation Between Draw-Tite and EcoHitch Trailer Hitches
• Long story short go with the Draw-Tite # 76170 for your 2022 Honda Odyssey. It has the same basic design and function as the EcoHitch # 306-X7372 and the only real difference is the Draw-Tite is made of steel while the EcoHitch is made of a combination of aerospace-grade aluminum, steel, and stainless steel but it uses recycled materials which is where it gets the name "Eco". Attached is an installation video of the Draw-Tite on a 2022 Odyssey for you to check out. If you were planning...

• Will etrailer Trailer Hitch e78KR Be Able To Replace Class I Hitch On 2008 Honda Element?
• The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e78KR you mentioned is confirmed to fit your 2008 Honda Element EX and will be perfect for replacing your class I trailer hitch receiver. As you mentioned the # e78KR is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver that is great due to it having the most available accessories such as bike racks, cargo carriers, and ball mounts for towing a trailer. The etrailer and Curt hitches are both equally built with no clear advantage going to one or the other. It more...

• Comparing Draw-Tite and Curt Class III Trailer Hitches for a 2020 Honda Odyssey
• All of the etrailer and Curt Class III trailer hitches that fit your 2020 Honda Odyssey either meet or exceed the max towing capacity for your vehicle, so it really boils down to the design of the trailer hitch and what you plan on using it for. I recommend using the Draw-Tite # 76170 because it has a hidden crosstube which gives you a great looking end-result and better ground clearance since only the receiver is visible. The etrailer # e98855 and the Curt # C13370 have the standard...

• Difference between HR1450Z-85 and the HR1450Z-85-FB
• The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE2 Bike Rack w/ Cargo Carrier for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches # HR1450Z-85 can accommodate 2 bikes with a cargo carrier, two bikes alone, or the cargo carrier alone. The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack w/ Cargo Carrier for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches Item # HR1400Z-85 can accommodate 2 bikes with a cargo carrier, two bikes alone, 4 bikes alone, or the cargo carrier alone. So the 4 bikes alone option is the only difference between the two racks.

• Comparing Draw-Tite and Curt 2 inch Trailer Hitches for a 2019 Honda CR-V
• The first noticeable difference between the Draw-Tite # 76128 and Curt # C13397 trailer hitch receivers for your 2019 Honda CR-V is the design and what it looks like after it is installed. The Draw-Tite looks like a standard trailer hitch where the crosstube is visible while the Curt has a hidden crosstube design which looks more sleek. I have attached photos of both options so you can get a good idea of what the design differences look like. Aside from that there is a weight rating difference,...

• What is the Difference Between the etrailer Cargo Carrier and the Scratch and Dent Cargo Carrier
• I'm happy to explain. The 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches, part # e98874, and the Scratch and Dent Cargo Carrier - 24"x60" - 2" Hitch, part # e89GR, are in fact the same product. The "Scratch and Dent" version is simply one of the etrailer Cargo Carriers with a few scratches/dents in it, allowing us to offer it at a discounted price. I've linked to a video review of this carrier for you to look at.

• Why a Wheel Mounted Platform Bike Rack is Preferred to a Frame Mount
• Generally speaking wheel mount only bike racks are preferred. Especially for people with carbon fiber bike frames since frame mounts aren't recommended at all with them otherwise damage could occur. For other frame designs people still prefer them because there is no frame contact. People with suspension also prefer wheel mount as well. Loading is also easier because when the wheel mount is lowered you just set the bike in the tray, raise the wheel mount and then secure it to the wheel....

• Tekonsha 7-Way Wiring Harness vs. Curt 7-Way Wiring Harness for 2018 Honda Pilot
• The difference between the 7-way harnesses available for your 2018 Honda Pilot comes down to quality and reliability. Over the years we have found the Tekonsha brand to be far more reliable than Curt so I strongly recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package - 7-Way Trailer # 118286. This harness also has higher maximum amperage than the Curt which means it offers you better protection against potential shorts. To mount this use mounting bracket # HM48625. I have...

• What is the Difference Between The Husky Liners Floor Liners Parts HL98451 and HL98471
• I called Husky Liners to check since both Husky Liners WeatherBeater Custom Auto Floor Liners look identical. My contact said that part # HL98471 is meant to fit Honda CR-Vs from 2015-2016 and that part # HL98451 would only fit up to 2014. However, we do have an install video of the # HL98451 being installed on a 2015 Honda CR-V, so any changes that they made must have been minimal. Either liner will fit for in your 2016 Honda CR-V.

• Comparing Curt 2 Inch Hitch Option With the etrailer Hitch Option for 2020 Honda Odyssey
• You are correct, both the etrailer hitch, # e98855 and # C64NR are confirmed to fit your 2020 Honda Odyssey. However, there are a few details that differentiate the two. The main thing that sets these two apart is that the Curt # C64NR has a concealed design, so (aside from the square receiver) it's completely hidden behind the bumper, as opposed to the # e98855 which is quite visible. For this reason, I recommend choosing the # C64NR. That being said, because of the hidden design, to...

• Comparing 2 inch Trailer Hitches for a 2018 Honda CR-V
• The biggest difference between the Draw-Tite # 76128, Curt # C13397, and etrailer # e98848 trailer hitches for your 2018 Honda CR-V is that the Draw-Tite has a visible cross tube once installed while the Curt and etrailer have a "hidden" design where only the receiver is visible (see comparison photo). The Curt and etrailer hitches have the exact same design and will install the same way but I recommend going with the etrailer hitch over the Curt option because it has a matte black finish...

• Comparing Ground Clearance of Class III Trailer Hitches on a 2012 Honda Odyssey
• Your assumption is true; the ground clearances given for the 2013 Honda Odyssey will be the same for your 2012. But if you look at trailer hitch # 75270 the measurement from the ground up to the top of the receiver opening is 11-1/2 inches. I have linked a video that shows this. The Curt hitch # C13068 does measure 13 inches to the top of the receiver, see video. The Curt hitch does angle up some but it will not have a negative effect on any hitch mounted accessories used or cause any...

• Comparison Between Draw-Tite 76025 and EcoHitch 306-X7253 for 2015 Honda Odyssey
• The primary difference is a matter of numbers. When installed, the Draw-Tite Class III # 76025 will sit so the inside top edge of the receiver tube sits about 13 inches above the ground, and the receiver tube will sit under the bumper so that the hitch pin hole is recessed under the vehicle by about 5 inches. The EcoHitch # 306-X7253 inside top edge of the receiver will sit about 14 inches above the ground and the hitch pin hole will be recessed by about 4 inches. In other words, the...
