Hi, I'm looking at used Highlanders to tow my 17 ft Casita, both gas and a hybrid. But the two I'm looking at do not have a hitch. Is there anything special to know about getting the hitch and plug installed? Can I do a third party or should I go to the dealer I buy the used Highlander from?

Bit different advice here.
If adding a trailer hitch, wiring, brake contoller (you can use an expensive phone app controller though with no install) and potentially other modifications to make a vehicle suitable for towing, and you don't have the knowledge nor ability to do it yourself, it will be an expensive proposition.
Just too many mid size whatever's out there that already are set up for towing to pay to have it done, in addition to buying the vehicle.

Good luck car shopping though!
