Question:

Hi! Question for you. Have a 2017 Mazda CX-5 AWD GT, will be purchasing a 1upusa platform bike rack to use with it. Looking to purchase the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2inch Item # 76138 from you but wondering if the draw-tite sits too far under the bumper after installation to allow me to fold up the rack without an extender do not want to use one. Any info you can provide is much appreciateD!

With Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 76138 installed on your 2017 Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring model the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole out to the rear edge of the bumper is approximately 3 inches. The 1Up bike rack you plan on using will easily clear the back of the vehicle when folded up based on the measurements provided from 1Up.
