Yes, you will still be able to use the Hands Free Lift Gate on your 20223 Toyota Highlander with the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e75ZR installed. This has been confirmed through several reviews as we have not personally had one in our facility to test as of this date(July 2023).

I recommend installing the 4-Way # TK99FR when you install the receiver. This is the common connector used on most small trailer rated 3,500lbs or less. It will also allow you to use Auxiliary Lights # C53201 if you are carrying a large hitch mounted accessory like a bike rack which can impair the view of your tail lights.
