The hidden trailer hitch I recommend for your 2020 Toyota Sienna is the Draw-Tite # 76112 because it is the only hitch of the three that is rated for use with a weight distribution system like the Fastway e2 # FA92-00-0600, which not only speaks to its overall strength but is important if you do plan on towing. I have added a photo showing this hitch installed on a Sienna so you can see exactly how hidden the crosstube is. I have also added a link to a video install of this hitch so you can see what the process entails.

If you do plan on towing, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness, and for your 2020 Sienna the correct harness is the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118648 if your Sienna is NOT an SE model or the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118498 if you DO have the SE model. I've added links to install videos of the harnesses for you to check out as well.

Answer 4

The weight of a weight distribution system does not get factored in as part of the tongue weight. Essentially the system becomes a part of the trailer hitch, which means the weight of it does not count as tongue weight either.

If you're not planning on loading the trailer until you get to a destination, you can either leave the trunion bars of your Fastway e2 #FA92-00-0600 completely off the system or loosen the bars up so that there isn't much tension. Either way…
