EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Installation - 2020 Subaru Ascent- Video
Ryan: Hey, everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today, on our 2020 Subaru Ascent, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the EcoHitch class three trailer hitch receiver. So, the best part about this hitch is that it's going to sit behind our bumper. That way, whenever you're not using it, it can remain completely hidden, and that's because we're going to have an access panel that you can simply just put back in place and maintain that factory look.Most of our Ascent customers use our Subarus to do a little bit of everything, which not only includes towing, but also carrying hitch-mounted accessories. Well, this is going to be a good all around hitch for that, and that's for a couple of different reasons. Since it does sit behind our bumper, that's going to bring it up off the ground more, so it's going to give us a really good ground clearance, and it's going to give us good bumper clearance.So, what I mean by that is, the end of the receiver tube, even though it is hidden, it's going to be pretty much flush here with the edge of our bumper, so that's going to give us more than enough space to use any folding accessories that we might have without having to worry about them contacting the back of our car.And for those of you that do plan on doing quite a bit of towing, this hitch is going to be set up really good for that. more

Many of our Subaru customers use their Outbacks to do a little bit of everything, whether it be pulling a trailer, using an accessory like a bike rack or cargo carrier. This is going to give us a connection point to be able to get the job done and not to mention, since we'll have an opportunity to carry our accessory back here, we're going to have space up top freed up that way we're still able to use any rooftop accessories. One of the things I like about this hitch is that it's going to sit back a little bit behind our bumper and it's going to have a carbide matte black finish, so it's really going to blend in nicely on the back of our Subaru.It's also going to give us some really good clearance and so, what I mean by that is the end of the receiver tube is going to be just about even with our back bumper, so this should work out really well for any folding accessories like a bike rack or a cargo carrier for example. more

Ryan: Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2015 Subaru Crosstrek XV, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Draw-Tite, class one, trailer hitch receiver. Now although our hitch is mostly visible, I do like how it contours to the lines to the back of our Subaru and blends in pretty well. And there's also a benefit to being exposed like this. It's going to be a lot easier to use and it's going to be easier to get our accessories on and off.The end of our receiver tube, is going to sit pretty much flush with the edge of our bumper. And that's a good thing because we'll get plenty of clearance and that'll work well with any folding accessories. more

Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2019 Subaru WRX, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Curt class 1 trailer hitch receiver.

It's going to be really easy to use because everything's going to be in the open. Now, the hitches that are less visible are going to be a little more tough to work with. What I mean by that is, you're going to have to pull out your center plug every time you want to use it, and you're going to have to kind of pull your fascia back and reach way up there, to get your pin and clip in and even hook on your safety chains. more
