Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2018 Subaru Impreza Wagon
Question:
I have a 2018 Subaru Impreza wagon that I want to install a hitch on so that I can carry a bike rack, what hitch would you recommend?

Expert Reply:
The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2018 Subaru Impreza Wagon is the Draw Tite part # 76209 because it has a 2 inch opening which most bike racks and accessories are made for, and because it has plenty of tongue weight capacity for your bike racks at 675 lbs.
If you are in need of a bike rack, I really like the Saris SuperClamp EX part # SA4025F.
This is a platform bike rack that only touches the bike at the tires and only weighs 35 lbs. The biggest drawback to platform bike racks has always been the weight of them, but with this rack you get the best of both worlds. The preferred attachment style with the lighter weight.
