Hello to all Gray nomads, my first time posting, I would like some pros and cons on the Gen-y tow hitches, they are dear but what i have watched they are one of the best, we have a 2021 Dmax great car and setting it up for towing a 19 to 20ft dual axle caravan in the next couple of years, we have a 15ft hybrid single axle at the moment, getting a xbar tow bar fitted in the coming weeks, are the Gen-y hitches better for the single or dual axle vans, thank all feedback appreciated

G'day Brownie, The best hitch (IMHO) are the genuine DO-35/DO-45 best towbars are ALKO. I have just had both fitted at TJM, not the cheapest supplier, but they don't void Nissan new car warranties.

Welcome to the gang Brownie, enjoy here and out in the playground.
I would go for a Hayman Reese Tow Bar as they are good quality, and many fitted to all flavors of vehicles out here in the playground.
Also, and as well even, I do agree that the 'DO 35' is a good piece of equipment but as an option, a 'Mc Hitch' is also of good quality and many, many of them being used on all sorts of different sizes of vans or similar. I see heaps of both types and speak with many users of both, and they all are very happy with either. There is 1 or 2 on here that say the 'Mc Hitch' is not safe, but hey, there wouldn't be so many in use if that were the case.
