I'm looking to buy a hitch to be able to mount my Thule bike rack. I've poked around the net and found that the more popular choices are either Hidden Hitch or Curt. I have an 2012 Tech automatic. Does anyone have a strong opinion regarding either hitch??? Any information will be greatly appreciated.

I have a hidden hitch installed on my 09 tech. I tow a 13' Boston whaler with it so I don't think you would have a problem with it carrying a bike rack. It is built well and it is not too exposed. I have had the u-bolt in the middle hit the ground a few times on steep driveways but I am lowered ~1.6".
I cannot vouch for curt since I don't have any experiences with it but I think they are also built well and it's just a matter of preference. I don't know if this is the info you needed but this is my experience

why not get a roof rack so much better in my opinion than hitch bike rack and car looks so good with it

I don't like how permanent the roof racks are.

IIRC, I'm using a hidden hitch that I half drunkenly transferred over from my RSX. Gets the job done!

Hard to see, but that's kinda the point

Tricia & Rockstar,

Thank you very much for your input. Greatly appreciated!

Apologies. I meant to type Trixie, not Tricia.
