Class III Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2010 Ford Flex
Question:
I have a 2010 ford flex limited and i am looking for a class 3 trailer hitch. I would like it to fit the rear fascia and i saw a install on youtube into a buick enclave where they added a hitch into the factory spot. I would like to do that, but all ive seen are class 1 hitches that are over 300 dollars. Can i get a suggestion on a hitch that you sell that meets these requirements?

We do have Class III trailer hitches for the 2010 Ford Flex, but the receiver and cross tubing of any of them will be visible below the rear fascia. The most popular hitch for the Ford Flex with single exhaust is the Curt Trailer Hitch, # 13551. I have included a link to the installation instructions and a link to a video showing a typical installation.
If you plan to do some towing, I recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit, # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts, 2 balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a carrying bag. For trailer wiring use the Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring, # 118472. I have included a link to the installation details for the wiring for you.
