Best Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2019 Honda CR-V Towing and Bike Rack Usage
Question:
What is the best hitch for a 2019 Honda CRV. We will use it for pulling a jet ski and for a bike rack. We do not have a hands-free liftgate.

I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98848 for your 2019 Honda CR-V. The matte black finish will blend in better with the trim of your vehicle. The hidden cross tube design will better conceal your hitch on the rear of the CR-V. And with the 2" receiver will allow for you to use a wider range of bike racks.
The etrailer Ball Mount Kit for 2" Hitches # 989900 will provide you with a 1-7/8" and 2" ball. You can then choose from the 2 ball mounts included on which rise or drop will work best for your jet ski trailer height.
The Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118741 will give you a 4-way flat trailer connector. You will need this when towing your jet ski or if your bike rack blocks the view of your taillights you can use some Auxiliary LED Indicator Lights # C53201.
I recommend the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # NV22G. This bike rack will fold away when not in use and tilt when you need to access your rear liftgate without removing the bikes. And if you ever need to haul more than 2 bikes it is expandable with the 2-Bike Add-On for Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack # NA22G or 1-Bike Add-On for Kuat NV 2.0 Base Bike Rack # KU67FR
