My comments are for installation only. I haven't used the hitch yet, although it looks plenty study and well-made.

Installation onto my 2011 CR-V LX was a breeze. Maybe 40 minutes from start to finish, including about 10 minutes wasted trying to attach the U-bolt first. I didn't have a rack or ramps, so holding the hitch while lying on my back as my wife attempted to attach the U-bolt was ... unsuccessful. I ended up having her loosely attach the other bolts. With the hitch now supported, attaching the U-bolt was easy.

Most of my time was spent torquing the bolts.

I thought removing the rubber muffler attachment grommets would be difficult. However, I first sprayed those with STP Son Of A Gun, and they popped on/off easily.

This was one of the few projects that went better than I expected and in less time. And, of course, the folks at HitchSource were great. Product arrived within 3 days of ordering, just as promised.

The hitch arrived 3 days after placing my electronic order. Installation on the Honda CR-V couldn't be easier. I sprayed WD-40 on the muffler hangers and easily lowered the muffler out of the way. The hitch fit perfectly and I had everything installed and the muffler back in place in under 15 minutes (by myself).
I also purchased and installed the T-Connector wiring harness. This was simple too. Took less than 10 minutes.
Be sure to view the installation video prior to starting the project. It helps to make everything easy.
I couldn't be happier with my experience with HitchSource.com

A great hitch, well built and super easy to install like the all the reviewers say. Took me 20 min, required simple tools, and a buddy to hold things in place.

BIG TIP: The rubber muffler hangers are super easy to remove if you spray them with WD40 first. Give 'em a soak, and then gently use a pry bar to pop them off. This avoids the wrestling, cutting, and general cursing other posters have experienced.

Installation was a breeze. Everything lined up perfectly. Installation stated 40 minutes to install but it really only took about 20 minutes. Hardest part was removing the first rubber muffler hanger, as it was 30 degrees out and the rubber wasn't as flexible as it normally is. A little patience and it finally slid off. Do as the instructions state, loosely hang the hitch from the u-bolt and nuts, then you're free to install the remaining bolts. Then tighten the u-bolt nuts. Looks great. If you have a socket set, you can do it.

The trailer hitch went on without a hitch but make sure if you were trying to match up to an existing tow bar receiver from a used motorhome you bought (like me) that you don't make the same mistake I did and not get the quick disconnect set too.

Thanks... The hitch arrived quickly and installation was painless. The only glitch was my existing 5/8 hitch pin would not slide through the hole. Since it's only for a bike rack, I purchased a 1/2 pin.
