Review on πŸš— Black CURT 11276 Class 1 Trailer Hitch with 1-1/4-Inch Receiver, Compatibility for Select Toyota Prius by Andrew Cramer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

But does the job. - Goods for towing and winching

I didn't expect such a solid construction and I'm generally enthusiastic. I haven't read all the reviews but none mention that to install you need to either remove or modify the plastic cover that covers the bottom of the car between the bumper and the rear axle. I used a jigsaw to cut out some holes to attach the mounting plates. My second minor complaint is that the final clutch position is 3/4" below the bottom of my bumper, which would be impossible for most cars. Would probably be ideal. On a low clearance car like the Prius, every fraction of an inch off the ground counts , and in my case the Yakima bike rack I use scrapes the ground when I drive through the dip from my driveway to the street I'm considering taking it to a welder to have it raised a few degrees , which should give the bike rack enough space.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Clarity
