Hitch rating is typically chosen by the original person a Newell is designed for. If they just plan on towing a small car or SUV, then a 5000 lb hitch is ordered. If they want to tow a large trailer, a 2-1/2" hitch is selected. Virtually all Newells built during the last 30 years will tow 20,000 lbs with the installation of the correct hitch.
