Everything You Want to Know About Trailer Hitches

Most of your probably heard about the trailer hitches and were thinking to get one. But it might be a real headache when choosing it, since there is a lot of types. We are here to help you to get the right one for your 2014 Ford F-150.

Let's start with the basics: there are four major types of trailer hitches, regardless of whether they are installed at the factory (like many pickups and big SUVs) or added on afterward. A hitch may simply have a bar sticking out past the bumper with a ball mounted to it. Or there may be a square receiver that takes a ball mount that slides into it; there are several sizes of receiver hitches. Because of their versatility and the ease of removing that knee-knocker, they are the most popular. To get more information you can read this article on our website: Everything You Want to Know About Trailer Hitches

We would like to share few options we have from the leading manufacturers in this industry, such as Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch and others. To check all the information about them you can follow this link: 2014 Ford F-150 Trailer Hitches at CARiD.com

Thank you for your feedback! This information might be useful for those, who didn't get trailer hitch included or would like to replace it.
Draw-Tite and Hidden Hitch are subsidiary of Cequent Performance, so there might be something similar between them.

Indeed, you're correct. Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, and Reese are all owned by Cequent Towing. Even their websites are basically the same.
