No, they don't say THAT, it's just that they don't make it easy for you.

The hitch bolts up easily. See:
Trailer Hitch Installation - 2007 Honda Pilot - YouTube

This video is for a Draw-Tite, but mine's a Curt. Same idea, with a slightly different look when finished.

Ahh, threaded inserts inside the sheet metal frame... The Civic had nothin'; just me holding a nut on a wire through a 1'' hole upstream while trying to line up the bolt with the 30lb receiver dangling. Muffler had to be moved as did the plastic shield over the gas tank or spare tire well - cain't 'member 'xactly.

Mickleson stands on the wrong side of the ball...it's a wonder he can even hit it.

I didn't get to see any golf, or the Santa Anita Derby today. Busy burning fuel down at Barona. Good thing there was at least one slow car there
