Comparing Thule T2 and Kuat Sherpa for 2017 Acura RDX
Question:
I was doing a little more research at your site, and was wondering if the following two models would fit my Acura MDX 2017. Also what is your opinion of them, and does either one offer any advantages over the other? Kuat Sherpa 2.0 and Thule T2 Pro Thanks,

Expert Reply:
Because the T2 Bike Rack part # TH23JV and the Kuat Sherpa # SH22G are so similar and the # SH22G is considerably lighter I think it would be the best choice for you. As long as you have a 2 inch hitch either of these racks would work well for you.
Functionally the racks are basically the exact same and come with the same features, only advantage one has over the other is weight. That's where the # SH22G has the advantage. I attached a review video for you to check out as well.
You'll need a hitch installed on your 2017 Acura RDX as well. For that the best option is the Draw Tite part # 75784 which is a confirmed fit.
