Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack On a 2021 Ford Edge Platinum
Question:
I need a receiver for my 2021 Ford Edge Titanium. Can you recommend one that will work with the Thule Easy Fold XT bike carrier.
asked by: Rudy
Expert Reply:
For your 2021 Ford Edge I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e36RR. This receiver has a hidden cross tube making it less visible and the portion of the receiver that is exposed has a matte black powder coat finish that closely matches the trim of your Edge.
Your Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202 will pair well with this receiver. I do recommend installing a Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C73FR so that you can use the Auxiliary Lights # C53201. These lights will allow other drivers on the road to have a clear view of some tail lights as your tail lights on your Edge will likely be impaired by the bikes on the carrier. The 4-way can also be used in the event you need to haul a small trailer. Be sure to secure the 4-way with a Curt Easy Mount Bracket # C58001 to the receiver.
