Load Leveling Weight Distribution Hitch

I just purchased a Colman 24' travel trailer. I plan to pull it with a Sequoia 2014 Platinum Series SUV. The SUV comes with two towing features: (1) Electronic Modulated Air Suspension and (2) Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) system. I'm trying to figure out if I still need to install Load Leveling Weight Distribution Hitch, or if I'm OK without it.

    You might, or might not, need the features of a weight distributing hitch. But, you will (IMHO) need sway control. The best hitches combine the two.

    The idea of using a weight distribution system is to restore some of the weight loss on the front wheels.
