Default Towing

I just had a tow Hitch installed on my new 2023 CX-5 Turbo and was wondering what Ball Hitch other people were using? It looks like i need a 2 3/4" or 3 " rise for towing the U Haul line of trailers. Does that sound about right?

You didn't say what you have for a trailer hitch.
U-Haul trailer couplers when level, are generally 18" of the ground and accept a 2" ball.
You need to subtract the height of the actual trailer coupler from the height of your receiver and go from there.
