Comparing etrailer and Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receivers For a 2024 Subaru Forester
Question:
What is the difference between your trailer hitch and the Draw-Tite?
asked by: Gilbert
Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite # 76271 and our etrailer # e83ZR trailer hitch receivers do have a fairly similar construction. While the Draw-Tite is listed at a higher towing and tongue weight capacity these numbers do not mean a lot since both are rated for more capacity than your 2024 Subaru Forester can tow. Personally I prefer our matte black finish especially on this hitch since it has the exposed cross tube. And our receiver have gussets on the bend near the mounting points which I feel is the weakest point of the hitch.
With either option you will want to install the 4-Way # C56040.
