etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Installation - 2013 Ram 1500- Video
Rob: Rob here at etrailer.com, and today we're going to be taking a look at the etrailer Class III Custom-Fit Trailer Hitch Receiver on our 2013 Ram 1500, and here's what our hitch is going to look like once we have it installed. It's going to have a really clean, almost factory appearance, because all we're going to see is that receiver tube sticking out right here at the back of the bumper.Now, since it is a class III, it's going to give us that two-inch-by-two-inch receiver tube opening, and they have the widest variety of options when it comes to accessories. Obviously, we're going to be able to put in a ball, so we can tow a trailer. But also if we use our truck for working, we're going to be able to put in a bed extender and carry some really elongated gear, or if we just want to hit the trails with some friends, we could put a bike rack in there. The options really are very, very wide, and we can do a lot when we have a hitch on the back of our truck.But regardless of what kind of accessory you're going to be using, they're all going to mount to the hitch pin hole here on the side. Our hitch will accept standard five-eighths pin and clip. more

Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Installation - 2013 Ram 1500- Video
Rob: Rob here at etrailer.com, and today you're going to be taking a look at the Draw-Tite Class IV Custom Fit Trailer Hitch Receiver on our 2013 Ram 1500.Now here's what our hitch is going to look like once we have it installed. The crosstube is going to sit right below the bumper, but it sits back a little bit so we're not going to see it as much, and the main thing we're going to see is that receiver tube sticking out. Now, it is a Class IV but it's still going to give us that 2" x 2" receiver tube opening, so we're going to have a really wide variety of options when it comes to accessories.Obviously, we could put a ball mount in there, tow a trailer, but we can also hit the trails, put a bike rack in there, take some bikes with us. Make some room inside the bed and cabinet of our truck, put a cargo carrier back there, or maybe we need to carry a lot of elongated gear like drywall, plywood or anything like that. We can put a bed extender in there. But regardless of what we're going to be using it for or what accessory we mount up, all of our accessories are going to mount to the hitch pinhole here on the side. more

Best 2013 Ram 1500 Trailer Hitch Options- Video
Today we're going to take a look at the best hitch options for your 2013 Ram 1500.Here we have your top four hitches for your Ram 1500. Here we're going to have etrailer's class III hitch, this one over here we're going to have Curt's class III hitch, here on our rack on the bottom we're going to have Draw-Tite's class V, here on the top we're going to have Curt's class V.As far as ease of installation, I'm going to have to give that to the two class III hitches. As far as weight capacity, I'll give that to the Curt. As far as durability, I'm going to have to give that to etrailer's class III hitch and the Curt because it's going to have a triple carbide black powder coat finish. As far as my personal opinion, I don't do a whole lot of heavy hauling, so I would go with the etrailer class III because of the durability of the finish. If I did do heavy hauling, I would go with the Curt. more
