I am in need of a hitch on my 99 G500.
Any ideas or wisdom to share?

Do a search on hitches in this forum. But until the search funtion is working, try this http://www.google.com/search?as_q=g500+trailer+hitch&num=10&hl=en&btnG=Google+Search&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&lr=&as_ft=i&as_filetype=&as_qdr=all&as_occt=any&as_dt=i&as_sitesearch=www.benzworld.org&safe=images

I would recommend the factory hitch (not the after market) and as far as wiring goes I posted a wiring article at http://www.clubgwagen.com/gtech.php?pageTitle=G-Tech Article&sid=item&tid=56

The factory hitch can handle a significant load and it looks like it belongs there. During an extraction I would be very concerned about the load capability of some of the aftermarket crap out there.

If you need help, don't hesitate to ask.
