Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver item # 75282 is a superior hitch compared to the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver item # e98869. The Draw-Tite has a higher towing and tongue capacity. It has a glossy protective coat and paint job, compared to the matte finish of the etrailer hitch. It also has a wiring harness mounting bracket integrated into its design. Both are confirmed fits for your 2016 Nissan Frontier and have attached installation videos. Each hitch is custom fit and bolts directly to your Frontier with included hardware.
If your Frontier did not come with the factory wiring harness I recommend the Curt Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # C56225 for a 4-flat or the Curt Vehicle Wiring Harness with 7-Way Trailer Connector item # C56226 for a 7-way.
