Can't help with your truck except to say that setting it up to tow is expensive for a years usage.
Both Roadmaster and Blue Ox make good towbars. I had the Roadmaster Falcon and got tired of the binding that can occur and switched to the All Terrain. Advise getting a towbar that can be disconnected when the toad is not straight and level. The base plate will be different for the vehicles you're considering. The most important consideration for me was a MH mounted towbar so that he MH has most of the weight when unhitched and an adjustable towbar. If the toad is within a foot then it will connect.
I have a box brake used in the same CRV since 04. It takes extra time to install and remove but could work for you switching vehicles. My future choice will be a permanently installed brake but one that is relatively easy to move to a future vehicle. ie A DIY project.
