Shane: Hey, everyone. Shane here with etrailer.com. Today I have a 2014 Kia Sorento, and I want to walk you through how to install the Draw-Tite Class III Trailer Hitch Receiver.This what our hitch is going to look like when it's installed. You can see part of the cross tube, but the receiver tube actually sits back a little bit underneath the edge of the bumper fascia, so we don't have to worry about hitting it when we're loading and unloading the vehicle if we don't have anything on it. Being a Class III hitch is going to make it great for some of your bigger accessories. Say you want to pull a trailer, put a bike rack on, maybe a cargo carrier, different types of ball mounts. more
