No problem with a traditional 2" or 2.5" receiver. I guess no real reason for 2.5". I recently decided to put away my collection of balls and drops to a Tow and Stow adjustable. It gives me adjustable height to handle various different trailers, 2 balls (to handle various trailers), and stows fairly tightly to the rear of the vehicle. I see NO benefit in a hidden hitch - just seems like one more thing to cause problems.
I am in Texas, every truck near me has a hitch on the back. Online people whine and cry about balls sticking out the back of vehicles. We have working vehicles, and generally consider it a problem of people walking while looking at their cell phones. Annoying enough to have 3 different balls in the back seat AND one in the receiver. Stow and Go solved all of those problems, and I can even stow it and save the people who can not keep their eyes off their cell phone screens.
Only real problem with the stow and go - my trucks license plate is directly above the hitch, so I can not reverse it and get up and out of the way, it has to tuck under.
