Tow hitch of choice for a tacoma?

I am in the market for a tow hitch and receiver. I am curious as to what aftermarket packages are out there. If the OEM tow packages are the best or aftermarket (hiddenhitch) ones are better?

It'll be for my '04 tacoma 4wd...it's at stock height. I'm looking for something that is not sticking out way past the bumper and that is sturdy.

Let me know which ones you have had good experiences with and where is a good place to get them.

Thanks

I have a Hidden Hitch that I picked up for just a bit over $100 from a local shop. I like it except it limits the size of the spare underneath the truck. You'll have only enough space for the stock size replacement.

I know nothing about the clearance available from other companies' products.

hmmm...makes me curious as to how much clearance the OEM trailer hitch has (i'd guess only enough for stock size tire)?

Thanks for the info.
