Planning to install a Draw-tite class III # 76138 or Curt class III # C13315
2" hitch on my new Cx-5 to use with a 1up-usa bike rack.
Prefer to get the Draw-tite as unlike the Curt, it doesn't mandate the use of stabilizing straps, which seem like an unecessary annoyance. Am concerned, however, that the Draw-tite is more recessed under the bumper, and won't provide the necessary 3.2" clearance for the 1up-usa rack in the folded up position? The Curt receiver seems to stick out a little further.
If anybody has any experience with these combos, I'd love to hear!
