This may sound stupid but I need an opinion. I have a Chevy Cruze with a hitch attachment. would it be ok to use this on my vehicle? &lt;30miles CRF250R

The most important question is how much wheel well space do you have, if it looks like at least 4" you will be fine. I had a 98 honda civic with 3.5" space and a 2013 ktm 200xc-w, for 110 mile long trips. Worked perfect, with no problems!

The hitch is a weight distributing hitch. I handles weight, and doesn't know what kind of trailer it is attached to. I would think it would work just great. If you are really concerned go to the Camco website and ask them.

You can purchase either the 1 1/4 inch or 2 inch hitch....it depends upon which receiver the car has installed. You need to know which size is on the car. If it does not have a hitch receiver on the back, you can easily get one installed. I would recommend the 2", which is sturdier and can be used to haul trailers or boats as well.

I bought it and hauled a Honda CRF 230 and a CRF 80. It will work but it is difficult to tie the bikes down and it doesn't seem all that stable. Also you face a little extra chance of someone rear ending you since it obstructs the tail lights of your vehicle when loaded. I ended up selling it and getting a trailer.

It would depend entirely on the level of your hitch. On my car, where the hitch is located just below the bumper, I have plenty of room to open the hatch on the back with the tray and cargo bag both in place. But if your hitch is located directly in the middle of your bumper like it is on some SUVs, then it might interfere. With the Armada, I think you will be totally fine.

I would recommend a stronger hitch trailer. Worked good for our 250 dirt bike but not for anything much heavier. And we only used ours for short distances. 15 miles or less

I attached to a Santa Fe Sport. Drop the spare tire and you will see the bolt holes. It is the same hitch that the Dealer will charge you 500+ to put in. Start to finish was about 1hr.

It would depend on the rise of the cargo rack you are using, but there is generally not an issue with this, at least on an SUV or car. Could happen on a pickup since the license plate is mounted to the bumper, but pickup owners probably wouldn't be using this product.

That's what I did; works great....haven't had ANY problems with this hitch!! Just honor the 500 lb tongue limit and you're good.

I can't say for sure because the shaft was too short for my Traverse and I no longer have the hitch. But maybe knowing it is a shorter shaft will help you. Also, the further away from your vehicle you can get your trailer, the more clearance you will have, for the most part. I have one now that works but I wish I had gotten a longer one, fyi.

I used a cargo basket attachment and the weight did bend the hitch I would not recommend adding that much weight with this adapter. Hope this helps!

this hitch mounts to the original location as the factory hitch I ordered the car with. But, the OE class II hitch didn't work work my Kuat NV bike rack. I don't tow anything with the Crosstrek, but the class III is a better/more stable platform for the bike rack. I'm an ASE master tech myself, I just removed the OE hitch & installed this one. Tow rating of the car doesn't change with the hitch. I think for the Crosstrek/Impreza it's 1500lbs w a trailer brake, & 750lb with out one.

It's pretty easy to mount and not too heavy. The only problem I had with it is my hitch receiver is a little older and I couldn't fit the shaft in it due to rust. I had to modify the rack to fit it. So I guess I'm saying if the receiver is not relatively new and pristine, you may have problems fitting it in.

In my experience, if you have the Touring Package MDX with the dual exhaust, the hitch will mount up fine but the exhaust will hit the hitch. I had to find some rubber shims to wedge between the exhaust and hitch to reduce rattling and vibration. Good hitch, but bad fitment with the dual exhaust MDX's. Hope this helps.

You shouldn't have any problems using that hitch as long as it is even. We had that hitch and had it removed because it was not even so the bike rack was tilted. Other than that it would have worked fine. If you're still not sure you can call the company to get details. They have a guy that can give you answers. It's an awesome hitch, works we'll and looks great

Absolutely! My first experience was with a U-Haul trailer. Previously with same vehicle (Honda Pilot) hitch rattled inside car's receiver.

Hi Kimberly, I have a Saturn Vue 2009 and the rack works great. I had to buy a 1 1/2 - 2" adapter for my hitch. I have taken 7 hr trips with all the bikes... I must say it is a super rack! I also bought these rubber ties so that I could tie one tire to another bike so that they would not move around. I hope this helps. I am sorry for the delay in reply.
