The hitch with the easiest installation for your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon is the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT73RR. This is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a maximum gross trailer weight of 4,500 lbs and tongue weight of 675 lbs so it will be perfect for towing your utility trailer.

Since you plan on towing, I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118467 for your wiring needs. This plugs into existing wiring, providing you with a 4-way connection to power your trailer's signal lights.

For a ball mount, I like the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. This kit comes with two different mounts, a 1-7/8" and 2" ball, and a ball bag to store everything in.

I have attached some review and installation videos for your reference. I included the installation of both trailer hitches so you can see what the process is like for each.
