What W/D hitch to use.

OK, I'm going to pick my trailer up from twistedsilver.net in a couple of weeks and need some opinions on what hitch setup to use. I have a 2008 Buick Enclave with the towing package and a Prodigy brake control. My trailer is a 22' liner (new frame). It should come in around 4000lbs loaded. What will I need to pull safely without breaking the bank or overkill?

Thanks,

Cory

A Reese 800 pound dual cam would work just fine.

Proper installation and adjustment are essential to proper operation.

hitch for a Ford F250

What type of hitch do I need to haul our 86 Excella 500, 32 foot? I just bought a great 1992 Ford F250, long box, It was used to haul a 5th wheel but has been retired for the last 4 years. I was told I need a class 5 hitch. I have the head with the load bars.
I live in Eastern Canada
Thanks
Mac
