I was looking into doing this too. Then I noticed that the foldup trailer I wanted needed a class II hitch. There was also the issue of the height of the hitch.

I believe this to be true.

Because it fit the car, was easy to install, and price.

How heavy of a trailer & for how long?
I use mine to attach a Thule bike rack thingy; works well.

If you mean so that you can't see the receiver, I don't think that you'll find one like that.
The receiver's openning is actually "pushed" in; if the license plate was extended to the ground, the receiver would be behind the plate.

I had to use two Kartboy long hangers to clear the HUGE tip that Perrin uses.
Other than that, no clearence issues.

Here's two pictures showing my receiver.
I apologize for the one picture; I'm at work & my co-worker "helped" me out.
