Hidden Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon

Question:

Looking for a hidden hitch recommendation for my 2020 Outback Wagon. I use a hitch for my bike rack (mostly on the weekends) but I also use the vehicle as a daily driver and I want to retain as much of an OEM look as possible. Which of your trailer hitches will help me accomplish this?

The best trailer hitch to help you retain an OEM look on your 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon is the Stealth Hitches part # 391SUOB20.

Stealth Hitches is a fairly new player in the hitch receiver game and they have completely changed the way that trailer hitches operate. If you check out the linked installation instructions you can see how the stainless steel receiver literally sits behind your bumper and is completely out of sight. When you want to utilize your bike rack simply insert the locking receiver accessory and install your bike rack. When you are done carrying your bikes around just reach up where the receiver accessory is installed, unlock it and rotate the latching device to go back to a totally hidden look! This is much quicker and more secure than other options that use a square receiver that is hidden behind the bumper.

If you don't already have a bike rack I highly recommend the Kuat NV 2.0, Black # NV22B or Gray # NV22G, because it was designed around serious bikers with the wheel mount configuration (which is compatible with any bike frame style that doesn't have a front fender), bike/rack locks, easy-to-use features, and a bike repair stand so you can work on your bike at home or out at the trail. I have attached a review video of this bike rack on a '19 Outback Wagon so you can get a really good idea of what it will look like on your vehicle.
