Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2020 Subaru Forester

Question:

I’m considering the eco hitch like clean look, Hidden hitch think I like square rails better than tube look, or Curt hitch. There are no reviews of Hidden Hitch-how does it compare to other 2 I listed?

I have another option for you but the Hidden Hitch 87544 you were looking at is only confirmed to fit a 1996-1999 Acura SLX, and a 1992-2002 Isuzu Trooper.

For your 2020 Subaru Forester I recommend the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 306-X7391 as it has the highest tongue weight rating out of all of the hidden cross tube hitches available for your vehicle at 525lbs making it a great option for carrying a bike rack like the Thule Hitching Post Pro - Folding Tilting 4 Bike Rack w Anti-Sway - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # TH934XTR, carrying a cargo carrier, or even towing a trailer.

The # 306-X739 wont take away from the looks of your Forester since once installed only the receiver itself is visible as you can see in the included picture.

If you can tell me what you are planning on using your trailer hitch receiver for I would be happy to recommend the best products for your needs.

I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
