Default Confirming the curt works

Bought and installed the Curt 13315 on my 2022 Carbon Edition. Simple hitch install that followed the videos.

My Kuat rack sits pretty low though, and the exhaust seems to hit the rack when folded up.

Why Class (III)? CX5 is only rated for 2000lb towing so a Class (I) would be enough right?

Class 3 is more standard for trailer towing. Class 1 for like bike racks and such. Better to be a little overkill and secure than chance it.

Even with a bike rack, a class III is more stable. In my case, I also already have a bike rack for a Class III.
