There are two options available, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver, # e98909 with a matte black finish and the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, # C13176 with a gloss black powder coat finish. Both are class III, 2" hitches.

The Curt, # C13176 having a glossy black finish while the etrailer # e98909 hitch has a matte black finish is the only significant difference. Other than finish everything is equal, such as their 6,000 lb. towing/900 lb. tongue weight capacities, as well as the installation process. Both have hidden cross-tubes which means only the receiver is showing. My suggestion, if finish is not important, is to go with the most cost effective option.

Please note the linked product review and installation videos below.
