Expert Reply:

Other than the fact that they install a bit differently, and the Curt model isn't compatible with the SE-R model, both hitches are similar with the same 2000 lb towing/200 lb tongue weight capacity.

If you'll be using the hitch as an attachment for a hitch mounted accessory, you'll want to use the Draw-Tite model, as Curt's warranty requirements stipulate that a # 18050 support strap needs to be used for all non-trailer loads. The Draw-Tite doesn't have that requirement.

You may also want to consider the following items to complete your towing setup.

Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring, item # 118470
Sportframe Drawbar, item # 3594
1-7/8 inch hitch ball, item # 19256
2 inch hitch ball, item # 19258
Deadbolt Hitch Lock, item # e98879
