X-2!^^^^^^^ Exactly the same thing! The hardest part on my old PT Cruiser were getting a couple of the bumper cover bolts out, ended up cutting them, and replaced with new going back on! Took a couple hours, including the battery disconnect! On a new car, everything should come apart very easy!
Stay away from Camping World!
Find a hitch installer, go talk to them, if you get a good feeling from talking with them, and a reasonable price, go for it!
"Local shop my wife contacted quoted 700 just for base plate, 300 for the brake wiring."
Pretty high if you ask me! Shop around! Rail!
