Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76271 comes with 7/16" carriage bolts while the Curt Hitches # C13409 and # C47HR use 1/2" carriage bolts. All of these come with fishwire that matches the carriage bolt sizes so you don't have to purchase any for installing one of these hitches on your 2022 Subaru Forester.
I recommend going with the Curt Hitch # C47HR just because it has a hidden crosstube so it looks much cleaner after the installation. It will have a longer install time but I believe the end-result is worth it.
Attached are some installation videos for you to check out. If you let me know what you plan on using the hitch for I'd be more than happy to make a recommendation for you.
