Thanks, rowlands57, for your input.
Since mine would be for occassional transport of wood for diy stuff, I was thinking maybe a platform type rented from home depot or something similar. Would those connect directly to the hitch or would I still need a ball hitch that's typically used for trailers? Would you please elaborate on the wiring for trailers? What is this for? My plan would be to install the Curt 56338 wiring on my car myself as it seemed pretty easy/doable.
Regarding the hitch install... The video I saw had a 2018 CX-9, so I'm assuming the wiring for my 2019 would be very similar... Seemed pretty much plug and play... Further, sre ramps absolutely necessary? I may have misread but I thought I read somewhere that someone had installed it without raising their car...
Apologies for any silly questions, y'all!
