Recommended Receiver Hitch and 2 Bike Rack for 2010 Acura TL
Question:
Im looking for a hitch receiver and 2-bike rack for 2010 Acura TL. Id like the hitch receiver to be as inconspicuous as possible. Any recommendations?

Expert Reply:
With all three hitches offered for your Acura, the hitch will be visible below the rear fascia. This being said, the Curt Class I Receiver, part # C11496 features a round tube crossbar that many find more attractive than the square tube stock that the other two hitches use.
We have several different bike racks with a two bike capacity that are compatible with a Class I receiver. The Swagman Trailhead, part # S63360 would be my recommendation. This is a great mid-priced rack that features anti-sway cradles and will tilt allowing access to the rear of the vehicle once the bikes are removed. I would also recommend the anti-rattle hitch/cable lock, part # S64031.
