Best 2021 Acura RDX Trailer Hitch Options

Hey everyone, Ryan here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be checking out our best trailer hitch options for the 2021 Acura RDX. Today, we're gonna be primarily looking at three different trailer hitches for the RDX. There's one more as well that we have installed on the vehicle and we'll touch base on that here in a minute, but these will be our main focus and so we'll have the etrailer hitch, the Curt hitch, and the Draw-Tite hitch and if you we're to ask me what one I would personally choose, to be honest, you can't really go wrong with any of 'em. They're all very similar and I think it'll just boil down to which one you think will look the best. In my opinion, I feel like the etrailer would be the one I'd go to nine times out of 10. more

Right here we have the Draw-Tite Hitch, and right here we have the CURT. And although they're extremely similar in many ways, if I had to pick one for my own vehicle, probably lean more towards the Draw-Tite, and that's really just because this one's gonna have a little bit higher weight capacity so it's gonna be a little more versatile. And that might be the difference of, you know, allowing you to use, let's say a three bike rack compared to a five bike rack, or tow a little bit heavier trailer. more

So, you know, having that little extra capacity can put your mind at ease, and potentially open up your opportunity a little bit more on what you're gonna be able to do with your trailer hitch. Speaking of weights, the capacities are gonna be the biggest differences between these trailer hitches for sure. Like I said, the Draw-Tite ones are little bit higher, that's gonna have a 400 pound maximum gross tongue weight rating, so that's the amount of weight pushing down on the hitch, so that's good for those one to four, maybe even more bike racks, just kinda depending on the weight to everything, and it's gonna have a 4,000 pound maximum gross trailer weight rating, so that's the amount of weight pulling on the hitch, that's the weight of your trailer plus anything that you might have on it. more

Today on our 2015 Acura RDX, we're going to take a look at and show you how to install the Curt Custom Fit Class III 2-inch Trailer Hitch. Part Number C13130. Here's what the hitch is going to look like once installed. As you can see, like most hitches that work on this vehicle, it's going to be a really nice, clean look. You get your tube that comes out. It's about flush with the magnum upper, maybe inset about an inch to the end so you're not going to have to worry about bumping your leg or anything like that. Now, compared to some of the other hitches, this one does offer a higher tongue weight capacity at 600 pounds. Gross trailer weight capacity is going to remain at 4,000 pounds, but, of course, we need to consult the RDX's owner's manual to make sure those are allowable. more
