Hitch Recommendation for a 2014 Ford Escape
Question:
visible vs concealed cross tube hitch. looking for easy installation on 2014 ford escape.
asked by: Russ
Expert Reply:
The concealed cross tube hitches for your 2014 Ford Escape have a slightly long install time than the visible cross tube hitches.
Either hitch design wouldn't be that hard to install though so if it were my vehicle I would go with the concealed crosstube hitches like the part # 75782 over the visible ones like part # 75758.
For a hitch cargo carrier the part # C18150 would work very well.
