I have attached a link to our installation video for this trailer hitch on a 2006 Honda Pilot you can check out.
As you can see in the video at about the 15 second mark the distance form the top of the # 13328 hitch receiver opening to the ground is 18 inches. This may vary based on the tires and wheels you have on your vehicle but this does give you a pretty good idea what that distance is.
If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
