WHEN I PURCHASED MY POD ,I TOWED WITH A 2004 SUBARU FORESTER,IT DID FINE COMING HOME BUT WAS CONCERNED ABOUT WEIGHT FOR A LONG TRIP. I TRADED THE FORESTER FOR A 2005 TOYOTA 4WD 4 RUNNER.NOW I NEED TO GET A NEW RECIEVER,I KNOW I NEED A 2" BALL,BUT WHAT SIZE DROP IS RECOMMENDED ?
THANKS,

Set you Pod nice and level, measure from the hitch to the ground.  Then measure your tow vehicle hitch to ground.  That will tell you the difference.  Just subtract the trailer from your tow vehicle, that will tell you how much you need to drop the hitch down.
