Ryan: How's it going Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today we're going to be taking a look at your best hitch options for your 2013 Toyota Prius C.So we're going to have three different hitches. Up top here we're going to have the Eco-Hitch, which has a two inch by two inch receiver tube. Below it we're going to have the Curt and down here we're going to have the Draw-Tite and these two are both going to have inch and a quarter receiver tubes.The biggest difference that we found is that the Eco-Hitch is going to have that two inch by two inch receiver tube opening and that's really a benefit because it's going to be a lot more versatile and you're going to have a lot more options as far as hitch mounted accessories go. Those two inch by two inch accessories are a lot more plentiful, a lot of different styles and options out there for you to choose from and it's going to be easier to find whatever you're looking for.That's not to say these won't be a great option for you, especially if you already have inch and a quarter accessories. That way you're not going to have to look around and find new ones that'll work with your hitch.The next biggest difference we found is in regards to appearance, the Eco-Hitch is going to have a really nice black finish. more

EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Installation - 2013 Toyota Prius c- Video
Ryan: How's it going Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2013 Toyota Prius C we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the EcoHitch two inch trailer hitch receiver. Now the main thing that really separates this hitch from the others is the fact that it's going to have that two inch by two inch receiver tube opening. Now that really gives us pretty much endless options as far as those hitch-mounted accessories go. That way you're not going to have any problem finding the one that you like the most, whether it's a bike rack or even a cargo carrier to help free up some space on the inside of your Prius. And since many of our Prius customers do plan on using their hitch for folding accessories, this one's going to be great for those because the end of the receiver tube is going to sit pretty much flush with the back of our bumper.And that's going to give us plenty of clearance. more

Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Installation - 2013 Toyota Prius c- Video
How's it going Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2013 Toyota Prius C, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Draw-Tite Sportframe trailer hitch receiver. So the hitch for the most part is going to be pretty much completely hidden back here. The only thing you're really going to be able to see is that receiver tube opening and it's going going to look pretty good.In my opinion, there are some other ones that look a little bit better, but this is not too bad. Now this is going to work really well, especially if you already have those inch and a quarter accessories, since that's going to be the size of our receiver tube opening, and for those of you that plan on using any folding accessories, this one is going to give us a pretty good amount of clearance as the end of the receiver tube is going to sit just right behind our bumper.So this is a class one hitch and it's going to have the standard half inch size pin hole, and keep in mind a pin and clip does not come included, but if you need one you can find it here at etrailer.com, and we're going to have some loop style safety chain openings, which are going to give us plenty of room to use just about any size hook that we might have.Now as far as the hitches weight capacities go, we're going to have a 200 pound maximum gross ton weight rating, so that's going to be the amount of weight pushing down on the hitch. So that's perfect for those wanting two bike racks. more
