Do they have different ratings or this purely a style thing?

style from what I 'm able to figure out .both are class 3. im really leaning to style 2. im not into r & r the bumper to install the hitch, as would be required in style 1. in style 2 we still need to drop the mufflers to install.

Then from a style perspective, I prefer the 2nd one but I think the 1st one look sturdier to me.
