we just bought a 2006 400h and want to add a trailer hitch to we can add a bike rack and/or small plarform for a moped. i've found a lexus one $369, and the Curt is $160.

my question has anyone installed the Curt or any other non-lexus hitch and do they have any comments or complaints? is it worth $200 more for the lexus version? i cannot see why but excpet maybe it fits and looks better. thanks :-)

btw, we've been averaging 28+mpg in our first two weeks! and for an SUV. i owned a toyota corrola and got 33, then an avalon that got 25, and now a luxury SUV that gets more than 28+, i'm SOLD!

No need to purchase a Lexus hitch from the dealer. You can purchase a Toyota Highlander if you want something from the factory. Curt is also an option as is UHaul.

Use the search features of the forum(s) and you will see a number of existing threads on this topic with plenty of suggestions on where to purchase, especially the cap. That you may want to have a Lexus logo on it.

From your previous post today it looks like you already have the transmission cooler so you are most of the way there already.

I have a UHaul one. Looks great! Highly suggest getting it. Its like half the price of the one from Lexus.

yes, i had read about the highlander hitch also being an option. forgot to mention that. my thought was to get the curt and then try to buy lexus cap at dealership. hadn;t seen the uhaul but i'll check that one out. thanks!

Around $160 as well. You can get info right off the UHaul web site.

I just put one last week. $220 at a local Toyota dealer w/ online coupon. I used the below info.

thanks for that link, it convinced me to go with the highlander version and find the lexus hitch cap on ebay.
