You’re looking real good heading down the road driving your Mercedes ML320 but did you think to get the ML320 trailer hitch installed?
Your ML320 has a 5000 pound Class III hitch which is adequate for most towing jobs. So whether you want to attach a bike rack or you are planning to tow a small trailer the ML320 can do the job.
This is a vehicle that’s designed to keep you and your family safe on the road and it’s a vehicle the capacity to take along an extra load. There are several aftermarket hitches available and of course if you want to pay more you can buy directly from Mercedes and get the factory hitch.
Drivewire has a full line of Mercedes hitches and you will save as much as 60% over what your dealer would charge you for the same style hitch. And they’ll even ship for free. Visit their site for details. They carry Towpower, Reese, Mile Marker, American Product, and Smittybilt to name just a few and there are plenty of others.
Draw Tite also produces a receiver hitch that is rated up to 3500 pounds towing weight and 350 tongue weight so although not the maximum the unit is capable of, it will probably do most jobs.
The hidden Class III hitch is a square and round tube style designed for the ML320 and other trucks and SUV’s. It looks much better than the traditional square tube receiver. The design compliments the aerodynamic styling of these modern vehicles and it’s a stylish add on.
If you have the skills and the tools you can install your own hitch but generally speaking it’s best to take it to the shop where they can ensure you have a proper install. After all you don’t want to head down the road and loose your load do you?
You’ve taken a great deal of time in selecting a vehicle that’s safe for you and your family to travel in so whether you are planning to tow a small trailer or just want to be able to grab your bikes and go take the time to ensure you have the right ML320 trailer hitch and that it is properly installed.
