We just got the hitch I ordered for our saturn vue, it looks nice and sturdy, class III, we will probably wait until the storm (Ike) blows over before we install it. Looks simple enough to me...one step closer to being able to get a camper YAY!

Care to share where you got it, what brand/model and how much you paid? That info may be of value for someone else looking... you'd sure save them some time

We are installing the hitch this evening, and we have some question as to where to plug in the wires on our 2007 Saturn Vue. Kirk looked in the housing for the tail lights and found a clip that the wires are attached to, so we are guessing this is where we plug in?? Does anyone know about this part??

Hitch is in place, and we are ready to tow!! It was a fairly easy job, took about 45mins.

Cool

I know the feeling. We just got our Subaru wired for RV service today at TLCentral in Kent to the tune of $369.85. We redeived a Prodigy controller and it looks like it will very easy to use. Only three controls, Power knob, Boost button and Manual knob.
Now all we need is our Trillium! Whooo hooo!
