The best class III trailer hitch receiver we have for your 2018 Toyota Highlander is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13394. The reason I recommend this trailer hitch is because it has a hidden crosstube which means only the receiver tube opening on the trailer hitch will be visible and it will allow for a full-size spare tire to be used as long as it is not on the aluminum rims. The aluminum rims are too wide for all of the hitches that we offer for your Highlander.
The best trailer wiring harness we have for your 2018 Toyota Highlander is the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 22119. It is mostly plug and play with very easy to follow instructions. The reason I recommend this trailer wiring harness is because we find Tekonsha to be the most reliable.
If you are also looking for a brake controller then I recommend the Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180 which is wireless so no modifications to the tow vehicle will be needed.
