Sorry if this is a repeat of previous questions, but could not find the answers I was looking for.

I have a 2011 Chevy Traverse, and am picking up a R-Pod 172 on Wednesday. The dealer did not seem to think a weight distribution sway hitch was worth it. I was looking at either the E2 or Equalizer hitch.

From the specs, it is overkill, but I do not want to have to worry about sway while pulling. Also, the E2 and equalizer do not required additional holes to be drilled into the Traverse.

Looking forward to going on our first adventure.
