I have investigated hitches for my only functioning vehicle, a 2013 Mercedes E350 sedan.
I'd only consider a Stealth Hitch, which hides away when not being used, but the price of that hitch plus professional installation is far too much for me. I'd rather put the money toward a lightweight canoe. In addition, the ground clearance of the deployed receiver would be very low on a skirted sedan that already bottoms out on dips and bumpy roads.
The whole enterprise is not worth it to tow a heavy canoe on smooth roads a few times a year. Not when I have easily cartoppable carbon canoes. The real answer is a time machine to take me back to the greatest decade, the 1960s.
