The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7152 is a great option for a 2008 Toyota RAV4. It has a hidden design which means most of the hitch is actually hidden behind the rear bumper. The receiver tube is the only part shown and it sits directly under the rear bumper facia. Therefore, it will reduce ground clearance but only by a few inches. There are not many trailer hitches in general that don't reduce ground clearance although some more than others.
