The main difference between the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C24ER and the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76176 is the Draw-Tite is rated to be used with a weight distribution hitch. This will help with your larger trailers as it will allow you to keep your 2022 Volkswagen Atlas level and more stable while towing.

Both receivers will share the same maximum weight ratings of 900lbs tongue weight and 6,000lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked installation videos for both receivers so you can see how their installations compare as well.
