Best Hitch Recommendation for a 2013 Mercedes Sprinter 2500
Question:
I have a 2013 Sprinter 144 Cargo with step bumper. Im wondering what the difference is between the three brands Im looking to occasionally carry a small 250cc dual-sport motorcycle with a rail directly on the hitch no trailer. They all seem to have the same specs 500lbs tongue weight, so is there one that is stronger than the others? Cheers,

Between the three hitches available for your 2013 Mercedes Sprinter 2500 with a step bumper you really aren't going to get much of a difference. I would recommend the Curt # 13358 just because it's priced the best. Aside from that you would see no difference between it and the other hitches.
I attached an install video for you to check out as well.
For a motorcycle carrier you could use the # UF48-979033 if you are in the market for one. I attached a review video for this carrier as well.
