With the Factory Tow Hitch, how much does the hitch stick out beyond the bumper w/o the reciever installed?

I just received the Draw Tite hitch, which I am going to install myself. I can see that it will stick out about 4". The hitch is v-shaped to get around the spare tire, so it sticks out like that. Not ideal for me, as I would rather have it flush...which would be cleaner, and I wouldn't have to worry about banging into it, specifically in the garage, where I have a tight fit.

I assume the factory hitch has this same issue getting around the spare, but wanted to check. I am coming from a Nissan Murano, where I also installed a Draw Tite hitch, and did not have this issue at all.

Thanks,
Andy
