I'm considering installing a trailer hitch on my 2013 Vision and I see two suppliers discussed here. Does anyone have experience with both and can offer an opinion on which is the better value?

I have the Hitch Doc and have pulled my trailer several thousand miles. Works fine. Pretty easy install compared to the Bushtec I have been told. No 1st hand knowledge.

I've also got several thousand miles with a huge trailer and the Hitch-Doc has been perfect.

Apparently the Bushtec appears to be a "heavier duty" hitch than the hitch-doc. But I guess I think its overkill and uneeded.

Hitch Doc. The Bushtec is a royal PITA to install, and can rub a tire over large bumps.

Value as in price but also considering quality, strength, reliability....etc. Not just price

I have the Hitch Doc on my 08 Vision, have been all over east cost with my trailer, blue ridge parkway,, skyline drive, Catskill Mts, etc, never had any problems with the hitch and you can't even see it when I remove the receiver part.   the hitch is the easy part, the wiring harness is the challenging/time consuming part.
