Towing Setup for 2023 Subaru Outback
Question:
So I have a 23 Outback and I want to tow a small trailer and power the lights. Please let me know what I need to make this happen.

To be able to tow a trailer with your 2023 Outback you will need a trailer hitch, wiring, and a ball mount. I recommend the following:
-etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e25TR
-T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118467
-etrailer Ball Mount Kit for 2" Hitches # 989900
The etrailer hitch features a bolt-on installation and a lifetime warranty. It also has a matte black powder coat finish which does a better job hiding dirt and scratches compared to others with a glossy finish. The Tekonsha wiring is the most reliable option out there to power your signal lights.
Finally, the ball mount kit has two ball mounts, one with a 3/4" rise or 2" drop and the other with a 2-3/4" rise or 4" drop. It also comes with a 1-7/8" and 2" ball, as well as a ball mount bag to store everything in.
