Best 2012 Honda Accord Hitch Options- Video

Today we're going to be taking a look at the best hitch options for your 2012 Honda Accord. Up top we've got the Curt class 1 receiver hitch part number c11085 followed by the Draw-tite class 1 hitch part number 24899. The biggest difference between these two hitches is the frame design. On this Draw-tite it's got an angled frame and on the frame of this Curt here it's got a rounded frame. With that this Curt's going to give you more clearance towards the outside part of your bumper. The next difference between these two is going to be what you're able to see when it's on the vehicle. With this Curt having the rounded tube to where it comes straight out from the receiver tube before going back towards the mounting points. You're going to be able to see this cross tube a little bit more than you would on the Draw-tite. On the Draw-tite, since it goes straight back like that, you're primarily just going to see the receiver tube and the safety chain connection points there. more
