Simple Options for Hitch and Wiring on 2018 Chevrolet Equinox
Question:
Please lets K.I.S.S. because Im stupid and do not have the patience to tolerate eleventy-twelve obfuscated options. I need and inexpensive 2 hitch why is the same hitch $163.40 and $244.69? ...and matching wiring harness with Stop Left, Right indicators ONLY. No! No trailer brake No Star Satellite indicator No bear-fart measuring device: Just the basics. 2018 Chevrolet Equinox 1.5 four cylinder.

I will try to keep this as simple and basic as possible.
Cost effective 2" hitch for your 2018 Chevry Equinox:
-Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76419.
Wiring harness that only has stop/turn/tail functions (aka 4-way):
-T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118750 if you do not have the factory tow package and do not have the Premier.
-T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118759 if you do not have the factory tow package and do have the Premier.
-T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118285 if you do have the factory tow package.
None of these include an indicator, measuring device, or trailer brakes.
Prices between different hitches vary for many different reasons at different times so there is no short answer to that question. The most basic reasons revolve around cost as well as supply and demand in any given market.
