To determine if the Pro Series # 63153 cargo carrier (nice choice, by the way!) will work well with your Acadia, first make sure it has a 2 inch receiver hitch. The inside dimension of the receiver opening, not the outside should measure 2 x 2 inches. Next, you'll need to measure the distance from the hitch pin hole in your receiver rearward until you clear the rear bumper (the help article I've linked you to shows exactly how to do this.) The cargo carrier has a hitch pin hole to closest part of the basket dimension of 12-3/4 inches, so it'll fit just fine and you'll be good to go.

Have you considered a folding carrier? Curt offers the # C18151 that's the same size as the Pro Series carrier, but it can fold up toward the rear of the vehicle when it's empty which is a really convenient feature. This carrier will also work great with your Acadia. If you'd like to view product demonstration videos featuring both carriers, click the provided links.

To protect your cargo from the worst of the road schlock, consider going with a cargo bag like part # 988501. Because it can't be submerged, I can't say it's waterproof, but it'll protect your belongings against all but a torrential rain. If there's anything in there that absolutely can't get wet, wrap it in plastic.
