I had my base 2023 X delivered recently and I'm always wondering if it can tow my trailer safely.
The travel trailer is less than 4500 lbs and has a tongue weight of 500 lbs.
The top of coupler height measures at 24". The X hitch height is 14". So there is about 8" difference here.
I'm thinking to use a hitch mount which is 2" rise and 8 1/4" long.
Here comes the math: 14"(X hitch height) + 2"(rise) + 3"(ball height) = 19" < 24"(trailer coupler height)
Is this setup doable? I know according to the manual the rise should be less than 3/4" and length should be less than 8". The trailer has one axle.
Thanks.
