About to pop my cherry! Going off roading this weekend for the first time and I just realized I don’t have a trailer hitch. I have a 2019. Should it have come with one?

Isnt that how you pull someone out if they get stuck? Or get pulled out if you get stuck (other than the front tow hooks)?
Gordo...research recovery gear. For a simple pull out, you’ll want shackles and a recovery strap or a chain. Don’t attach to a ball mount.

YouTube will be your friend.

NO! A tow ball is not designed for the type of sheering forces that would be applied to it when pulling someone out. Use the hooks with some shackles. Soft shackles are safer. As stated, YouTube will be you’re friend and potential life saver. Ronny Dahl channel has some very good recovery videos and covers the proper equipment and methods.
