Best Hitch for a 2021 Chevrolet Express Cargo Van
Question:
I have a 2021 Chevy Express cargo van I use for work. I sometimes need to tow a small trailer and need a hitch. What do you recommend I get?

Expert Reply:
The hitch that I recommend for your 2021 Chevrolet Express Van is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98861. This hitch is made in the USA, has a bolt-on, no drill installation and has plenty of weight capacity to tow a small trailer. It will provide you with a 2" receiver opening that is the most common size used for hitch mounted accessories like bike racks, cargo carriers and ball mounts for trailers.
I also recommend picking up the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118392. The T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side interior trim panels in your rear cargo area and provides a 4-way flat trailer connector at the back of your vehicle to power your trailer's signal lights. You can pick up the No-Drill Mount # 18140 and Mounting Bracket 4-Pole Flat # 18144 to install the 4-way to your hitch so that it is not hanging down loose or having to be tucked away each time you are not using it.
