If you are only interested in Aluminess, then ignore, but...
I have a Draw-Tite front hitch (in front of a V-10). I bought it to mount a plug-in spare tire carrier. The hitch itself is really nice, and fit well/is inconspicuous. I installed it myself (while camping!) in a couple of hours. I don't do anything like winching/towing, but I do remember there is some limit on that (there are two loops along with the receiver).
Watching temps with a Scan Gauge, I did not notice much of a difference with the spare up front (although I thought there might be). This was in 100º ambient temps. The whole thing is rock solid, and I'm pleased with it. Didn't look at Aluminess, so they might have something much cooler
It's this model hitch (and there are some photos that show it installed at the link):
